Art,

Dcmetr does decode the 1 & 2 groups into T6XC and T6NC 
(the $GEMPAK/source/bridge/mt/mtmmt6.f routine). The daily
max/min are TDXC and TDNC respectively. The parameters 
stored by dcmetr are in $GEMTBL/pack/metar.pack

For example:
 SFFILE   = metar
 AREA     = @cos
 DATTIM   = all
 SFPARM   = tdxc;tdnc;t6xc;t6nc
 OUTPUT   = t
 IDNTYP   = stid
 GEMPAK-SFLIST>r
 PARM = TDXC;TDNC;T6XC;T6NC
