You receive a briefing indicating a low-level temperature inversion with high relative humidity. What weather conditions would you expect?
Why →
A temperature inversion traps cool, moist air near the surface under a warmer air layer above. With high relative humidity, moisture condenses into mist, haze, or fog. The trapped air is stable (no vertical mixing), producing smooth flight conditions but poor visibility.The trap →
Turbulent air and showery precipitation (Choice C) describe unstable air. The opposite of a temperature inversion scenario. Wind shear exists at the inversion layer but not typically below it.SOURCE → FAA Remote Pilot Study Guide, Weather, FAA UAG Sample Question 39CHECKED APR 21ACS III.A.K1MED
