In addition, a short period textual forecast called a TREND may be added at the end of the METAR, likely covering changes in weather conditions for two hours following the observation.</div><div><br /></div><div>This layer also includes information from moored weather buoys from the <a href='https://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/' rel='nofollow ugc' target='_blank'>National Data Buoy Center</a>.
