Two Weather Reports Not Often Seen

[Zenarcher]

Just looked at XCWeather weather reports and Inverness says 'Blowing widespread dust in the vicinity' and then another report for Scilly Saint Mary's says 'funnel cloud in vicinity'. Not seen these reports before are they true or some sort of fault?

Looks like an error on XCweather - this is what we're showing for that location:

I'm not exactly on the Scilly's but it's very quiet here with mainly blue sky with a touch of Sc/Cu. How could they report a funnel cloud anyway, it's an AWS?

It's taken from a metar report.

Thanks for clearing that up after I made this post the station reported back saying clear and sunny like what weather ship has said.
