IFR vs MFR

KTSP 121435Z AUTO 30013kt 8 sm SCT007 BKN013 OVC019 09/07 A3001. Screen shot available

The IFR box is displayed red. Why is TSP considered IFR and not MVFR?

@joe-51
Because, erroneously, takes into account SCT007.
Cloud base at 007 (700 ft) is not a cloud ceiling.
SCT do not cover more than half of the sky (more than 4 oktas).
