Scattered clouds, with clear skies dominant. Cloud cover between 1/8 and 2/8. Abbreviated CAT. Turbulence encountered in air where no clouds are present; more popularly applied to high level turbulence associated with wind shear.

The most insidious kind of turbulence, clear-air turbulence, is invisible, comes without warning and occurs any time during a flight. "If you're flying in clear air, you have no indication at all," Bendall says. If an aircraft has passed through the area ahead of your airplane, your pilot might get an advance warning...

Britannica online encyclopedia article on clear-air turbulence (atmospheric science), erratic air currents that occur in cloudless air between altitudes of 7,000 and 12,000 metres (23,000 and 39,000 feet) and constitute a hazard to aircraft. Clear-air turbulence has not been known to cause aircraft to crash,

We often looked at data that involved turbulent conditions occurring at high altitude called Clear Air Turbulence (CAT), which is impossible to see or predict ahead of time. If the turbulence is severe enough the airplane may get thrown around or lose altitude very rapidly. Pics, Flicks and Facts Button...
