In re: to the 78//8 group:

TT is the temperature in Celsius. If the temperature is negative, 50 is added to the absolute value of the temperature, and any hundreds digits are omitted. For example, a temperature of -12 would be coded as 62 (12+50 = 62) To determine if a temperature of "10" is really +10 or -110, see the indicator number in the time group above.
That's a really weird convention... but, that still makes no sense.... -51 would be 51+50=101? Maybe I'm missing something?
