// Interpretation

VFR with brisk winds at 170°/13 kt, gusting 21. Visibility better than 10 statute miles and scattered at 1,400 ft, and scattered at 2,100 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.
