// Interpretation
MVFR — ceiling 1,300 ft. Light winds at 360°/3 kt, visibility 3.5 SM, scattered at 800 ft, broken at 1,300 ft, and overcast at 1,700 ft. Reported weather: light snow and mist (-SN BR). Mist is water droplets thinning visibility to between 5/8 and 6 SM — the moist, lighter cousin of fog. Would drop to IFR below 1,000 ft ceiling or 3 SM visibility, or rise back to VFR above 3,000 ft and 5 SM.

PADG · day 12 at 23:50 UTC · wind from 360° at 3 kt · visibility 3.5 SM · scattered layer at 800 ft · broken layer at 1,300 ft · overcast at 1,700 ft · temp 1°C / dewpoint 0°C · altimeter 29.53" Hg · weather: light snow and mist (-SN BR)

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. Severity rating assumes a standard altimeter setting (29.92" Hg / 1013 hPa); a non-standard setting shifts the effective altitude by roughly 1,000 ft per 1" Hg of deviation.
