IFR conditions — visibility 1.6 SM. Moderate winds at 180°/12 kt, visibility 1.6 SM, no reported cloud layers. Reported weather: haze (HZ). Haze is fine dust, salt, or pollution particles suspended in dry air — it reduces visibility and washes out contrast, a dry particulate obscuration rather than a moisture one. Would deteriorate to LIFR below 500 ft ceiling or 1 SM, or improve to MVFR above 1,000 ft and 3 SM.

Pattern altitude: 2,027 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 DAUT.
// Cloud layers · clear · no layers reported
// Reported layers (highest → lowest)
CLR
No reported cloud layers — clear sky from surface to reporting ceiling.
