My personal minima are set to less than the values in the local airfield METARS but they are being depicted as "bad". See attachment. Version 3.14.6.25294 on Android smartphone. Merry Christmas!

Full METAR at the time was: "METAR LSZA 250950Z AUTO 36015G25KT 310V060 9999 FEW065 SCT075 BKN085 09/M07 Q1009=" (can't seem to add images today, so I leave a link to them here: Screen 1 my settings: https://www.dropbox.com/s/fwo8bwy3hukw0jm/Screenshot_20201225_112122_aero.skydemon.skydemonandroid.jpg?dl=0 Screen 2 the decoding of above mentionend METAR: https://www.dropbox.com/s/rg1a29fhfsflglo/Screenshot_20201225_112128_aero.skydemon.skydemonandroid.jpg?dl=0 Any ideas what SD is interpreting? -- LSZA based DA40 / SR20 / S22T / PIVI / TWEN
