// Interpretation

IFR conditions — visibility 2.2 SM. Moderate winds at 210°/8 kt, visibility 2.2 SM, a few at 4,600 ft. Reported weather: sand (SA). Blowing sand reduces visibility and can abrade surfaces near the ground. Would deteriorate to LIFR below 500 ft ceiling or 1 SM, or improve to MVFR above 1,000 ft and 3 SM.

Pattern altitude: 1,919 ft MSL (1,000 ft AGL). Verify pattern direction and altitude with the chart supplement before flying. // On calm winds (<3 kt), all runways are usable — favor the longest or whatever the pattern calls for.

// Density altitude

Density altitude needs current temperature + altimeter + field elevation — one or more is unavailable for DAUA.
