Yup, if you don't have weather reporting you're going to have to go in VFR, and that means a bunch of other crap for us.

Now, there are some airports that get approved to use another airport's weather, but those have to be listed in the ops specs. I.E. You can use LAX weather for Hawthorne, or Saginaw for Bay City or something like that because the airports are like 3 miles away from each other.
