Default Part 135 Question - Weather Reporting requirement

Who can tell me what the wording means in 135.225 (a) (1) and (2).
So you don't have to look it up - these are weather reporting minima to
initiate an instrument approach procedure. (1) (the) airport has a weather
reporting facility operated by the US NWS, a source approved by the NWS or a
source approved by the Administrator, and (2) The latest weather report . . .
at or above IFR minimums for that airport

Does this mean that all airports without active NWS observing stations are off
limits to air taxi operators? Even in perfect weather conditions? What if an
air taxi operator wants to schedule a flight into a Class D airport, arriving
after hours, when everyone has gone home, and the airport has reverted to
Class G? What if the "latest weather report" was five hours ago?
