Meteorology

                In the text box at the top, the weather situation is

                briefly described (in English).




                When  CB  (Cumulonimbus  clouds)  is  forecasted,

                the  symbols  for  ice  and  turbulence  will  not  be

                shown.




                You should know that CB clouds can cause

                severe  turbulence  and  intense  icing,  as

                well  as  heavy  hail  showers  (this  is  also

                stated at the bottom left of the chart).




                                             Amount of CB

                        ISOL  CB                 Up to 50% of the area covered

                        OCNL CB                  50-75% of the area covered

                        FRQ  CB                  More than 75% of the area covered
