Narrative:

At approximately XA15 I received the WX (automatic) from TDZ. It reported 200 ft overcast, visibility missing. (Tol) was reporting 100 ft overcast, visibility 2 1/2 mi with rain. Yip was reporting 3400 ft broken, 5 mi visibility. The aircraft was a beech king air B100. I have 1200 pounds of fuel, myself and a company employee on board. I started the GPS runway 4 approach at toledo metcalf and upon reaching straight-in minimums, I was not in a position to land due to visibility 4 mi. The visibility to the north was improving so I entered a left downwind for runway 22 to circle. As I was circling, I was watching the runway and upon rolling out on final, I saw I was too high. I closed the throttles and selected 60% flaps and touched down approximately 1/3 - 1/2 way down the 3400 ft runway. Upon stopping, I had approximately 800 ft of runway remaining. I feel I should have stayed on the missed approach and diverted. However, being distraction by keeping the runway in sight did not allow myself enough room to descend. At no time did I go below mdh or exceed aircraft or company policy guidelines.

Narrative: AT APPROX XA15 I RECEIVED THE WX (AUTO) FROM TDZ. IT RPTED 200 FT OVCST, VISIBILITY MISSING. (TOL) WAS RPTING 100 FT OVCST, VISIBILITY 2 1/2 MI WITH RAIN. YIP WAS RPTING 3400 FT BROKEN, 5 MI VISIBILITY. THE ACFT WAS A BEECH KING AIR B100. I HAVE 1200 LBS OF FUEL, MYSELF AND A COMPANY EMPLOYEE ON BOARD. I STARTED THE GPS RWY 4 APCH AT TOLEDO METCALF AND UPON REACHING STRAIGHT-IN MINIMUMS, I WAS NOT IN A POS TO LAND DUE TO VISIBILITY 4 MI. THE VISIBILITY TO THE N WAS IMPROVING SO I ENTERED A L DOWNWIND FOR RWY 22 TO CIRCLE. AS I WAS CIRCLING, I WAS WATCHING THE RWY AND UPON ROLLING OUT ON FINAL, I SAW I WAS TOO HIGH. I CLOSED THE THROTTLES AND SELECTED 60% FLAPS AND TOUCHED DOWN APPROX 1/3 - 1/2 WAY DOWN THE 3400 FT RWY. UPON STOPPING, I HAD APPROX 800 FT OF RWY REMAINING. I FEEL I SHOULD HAVE STAYED ON THE MISSED APCH AND DIVERTED. HOWEVER, BEING DISTR BY KEEPING THE RWY IN SIGHT DID NOT ALLOW MYSELF ENOUGH ROOM TO DSND. AT NO TIME DID I GO BELOW MDH OR EXCEED ACFT OR COMPANY POLICY GUIDELINES.
