See below RAW METAR and compare it to VISIB.

I noticed this when I checked the avaiation weather map android app and it was saying all clear w/ respect to VIS - But our internal server app was still saying VIS was poor. :(

I compared the raw metar for both apps - Mobile app works fine (not sure what backend modules they are using) to this aviation weather model - And obviously there were diffs.

I checked module source code and did not easily see where the raw METAR data was being parsed... Not sure why VISIB is off.

Any ideas?

Example of live data dump:
"airportCode": "KILN",
"airportName": "Wilmington Arpt, OH, US",
"icaoId": "KILN",
"visib": "2",
"wspd": "4",
"clouds": 2300,
"rawMetar": "KILN 030954Z AUTO 10004KT 4SM BR OVC023 07/07 A3013 RMK AO2 SLP214 T00720067",
"reportTime": "2024-03-03 10:00:00",
"receiptTime": "2024-03-03 09:58:13"

I also noticed it on this one:

    "airportCode": "KLUK",
    "airportName": "Cincinnati/Lunken Fld, OH, US",
    "icaoId": "KLUK",
    "visib": "2",
    "wspd": "0",
    "clouds": 0,
    "rawMetar": "KLUK 031042Z AUTO 00000KT M1/4SM R21L/1000V1200FT FG VV002 06/05 A3014 RMK AO2 T00560050",
