CLOUD: Locally BKN STSC between 0000-1800FT, mainly first half over inland, eastern and far west areas. Cloud base will cover the ground.

FEW gradually locally SCT to BKN CUSC bases 2000-5000FT tops 10000-12000FT, mainly second half over western areas. Isolated CU tops may reach up to 18000FT over western/northwestern coastal areas by end of period. Cloud base may cover high ground.

Risk isolated CB base 2000-4000FT tops 26000-30000FT, by end of period over the western/northwestern coastal areas. Cloud base may cover high ground.

Risk at times of locally FEW to SCT AC between 8000-18000FT.
SURFACE VISIBILITY: Prevailing 8KM, falling to 1500-6KM in mist and/or increased dust, to 3000M-8KM in showers or any thunderstorm, to 0100-1000M in fog patches and to 0100-0200M in any hill fog patches.
WEATHER: At times increased cloud coverage, mainly by end of period over western areas with isolated showers and low probability of an isolated thunderstorm. Locally increased low cloud coverage with local mist and fog patches mainly over inland, eastern and far west areas, with the phenomena gradually dissipating. Dust in suspension with concentrations gradually increasing. Hill fog patches.
HEIGHT OF 0°C ISOTHERM: 9000-10000FT gradually 8000-9000FT.
AIRFRAME ICING: Moderate in any AC and in CU. Severe in any CB.
TROPOPAUSE: ////// FT ////// °C

REMARKS, WARNINGS, TURBULENCE ETC: Moderate turbulence in any AC and in CU. Severe turbulence in any CB.
Slant visibility will be less than the corresponding horizontal due to dust.
Moderate turbulence will be experienced over the leeward side of mountains.
No warnings at the time of issue.
BAROMETRIC CHANGES: Rising.
FURTHER OUTLOOK: TILL 02 1500
Similar conditions, but later local showers and isolated thunderstorms, mainly over western areas. Increased dust concentrations.
