Hi -- this is a snippet off of NOAA's winds aloft forecast page:

FT 3000 6000 9000 12000 etc.....
-----------------------------------------------------------
FAT 3405 2206+10 2523+03 2336-04 etc...

How do I read this? At airport FAT at 3000 ft the winds are 3405 Dont Know At 6000 ft. they're 2206+10 Help!

I don't get it and I can't find an explanation on the site. Can anyone help?
