Stan,
ATC cannot even send you to a known VFR airport that has no weather
reporting.
Some ten or more years ago a C-150 was trapped above an
extensive 1300 foot fog layer. They tried Concord, Oakland and
Travis AFB. The aircraft crashed near Travis.

During this time there was a VFR uncontrolled airport at 1800
feet with lighting within 30 miles.. ATC was not allowed to tell
the plane of the airport because it did not have weather reporting.
Item:
Bureaucratosis may wind up killing us all.
