"Cumulonimbus clouds (CBs) are thunderstorm clouds. Areas of CBs meeting select criteria are enclosed
by scalloped lines. The criteria are widespread CBs within an area or along a line with little or no space
between individual clouds, and CBs are embedded in cloud layers or concealed by haze or dust. The
prog does not display isolated or scattered CBs (one-half or less coverage) which are not embedded in
clouds, haze, or dust. Cumulonimbus areas are identified with "CB" and characterized by coverage and
tops. Coverages are identified as isolated (ISOL), occasional (OCNL), and frequent (FRQ). Isolated and
occasional CBs are further characterized as embedded (EMBD.) Coverage values for the identifiers are:
isolated - less than 1/8; occasional - 1/8 to 4/8; and frequent - more than 4/8. Tops are identified in
hundreds of feet using the standard top and base format. Bases extend below 24,000 feet (below the
prog's forecast layer) and are encoded "XXX." The identification and characterization of each
cumulonimbus area will appear within or adjacent to the outlined area. Thunderstorms always imply a
variety of aviation hazards including moderate or greater turbulence and hail."
