P0003 HOURLY PRECIPITATION AMOUNT Prrrr; in tens, units, tenths and hundredths of an inch since last regular hourly METAR. A trace is reported as P0000. See Observing and Coding Remarks for additional information.
 
Well, on that note, what does the SLP (and then a whole bunch of number behind it) mean? It seems like I see "A02 SLP##########" in the remarks section of a metar all the time and never understood what it meant.

Thanks,

Ryan
 
SLP is Sea Level Pressure in hectopascals. 073 is 1007.3 hPa. Or an altimeter of 29.75 inches of mercury.
