Not only is it bad enough that ATC screws up weather observations as noted on this forum...but NOW they are making up their on metars on ATIS...I put out the metar, as we have done for ages...and as a pilot i check atis on my radio, every now and then...and lo and behold some of these guys are now putting on ATIS whatever they want...last hour official metar is not what is on ATIS for this cycle...So i try to call to the cab...phone is off hook...So based on the stupidity of the FAA , this is what they want...ATC to screw it up and make up data now...this is not only stupid but very dangerous...Safety number 1? Total BS...Like one presidential candidate has said...these people are either incompetent or stupid...pick one.!!

This is something you have to expose. If you can take evidence of it, do it and publish it here and send it to the media as ATCs deliberately falsifying weather reports. (Especially if they're doing it as cat changes)
Verify, document, and when you have 4-5 of them, go for the jugular- give them enough rope to hang themselves. If a narrative can be pushed that ATCs can't be trusted to do observation, that adds to our job security.
Goes along with some of the other things I've been hearing about lately such as ATCs falsifying tower vis due to conditions in their own building.
