      IFR reported when there's a scattered layer below 1000' and vis 3 mi or greater. Should be MVFR. Scattered layer is not a ceiling.

            It appeared to be universal. I looked at several airports

              It seems that METAR conditions parser is taking (erroneously) SCT into account
              instead of BKN (or OVC).
              VFR, MVFR, IFR etc cliteria depend on visibility and CEILING.
              Ceiling supposed for BKN/OVC clouds (not for SCT).
