Based on the TAF for CYBE, what is forecast between 0106Z and 0200Z?

• A. 1/4 SM Snow
• B. 6 SM Clear
• C. 2 SM Rain
• D. 4 SM Fog

Answer: (A)

In a TAF, you read the forecasted weather and visibility for the specific time window. For CYBE between 0106Z and 0200Z, the report indicates a very low visibility combined with snowfall: 1/4 SM visibility with snow. This pairing—extremely reduced visibility due to snowfall—fits the time window exactly, so it’s the best match.

Think of what each option implies: 6 SM with clear skies means good visibility and no precipitation, which would not align with snowy conditions. 2 SM with rain suggests a different precip type and visibility level. 4 SM with fog indicates fog but a higher visibility than 1/4 SM. Since the forecast in that interval shows snow and only 1/4 mile visibility, the first option is the correct one.
