// Interpretation

MVFR — visibility 3.7 SM. Light winds at 340°/6 kt, visibility 3.7 SM, a few at 2,000 ft, and scattered at 9,000 ft. 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.

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.
