// Interpretation

VFR with winds calm. Visibility better than 10 statute miles and a few at 10,000 ft, scattered at 13,000 ft, scattered at 16,000 ft, and scattered at 19,000 ft. Would shift to MVFR if the ceiling drops to 3,000 ft or visibility below 5 SM.

Approximate using ~10% perf loss / 1,000 ft DA for normally aspirated, scaled by powerplant type. Verify with your aircraft's POH for accurate numbers — especially above 5,000 ft DA where these rules of thumb diverge.
