The latest observation time at or before 231700Z is 231653Z: raw report 'PANC 231653Z 36006KT 10SM FEW065 SCT100 03/M01 A2981 RMK AO2 SLP097 T00281011'. Temperature/dew-point group is '03/M01', so temperature = 03 = 3 degrees C (dew point M01 = -1C, confirmed consistent with T-group T0028... = 2.8C tenths, rounds to whole-degree body value of 03 per standard METAR rounding). Cross-checked the same raw text via aviationweather.gov's data API (https://aviationweather.gov/api/data/metar?ids=PANC&format=raw&date=2026-09-23T17:00Z&hours=3), which returned the identical report 'METAR PANC 231653Z 36006KT 10SM FEW065 SCT100 03/M01 A2981 RMK AO2 SLP097 T00281011' alongside 231553Z and 231453Z. Both sources agree on 03/M01 for the 1653Z observation, which is the last routine METAR at or before 17:00Z."
