010628 -- Case Summary Flight Times: 1917 - 2127 There was no attenuation of the 74C radar during this flight. This day was a good example of a thick cloud case. The rule for thick clouds defines: At least 4500 ft. (1.4 km) deep and any part colder than 0 deg C. During the time of the Citation mission (1930-2030Z), the cloud averaged 4km thick and the ambient temperature was -8 deg C at the aircraft's altitude. So this case meets the definition of a thick cloud hazard. During the entire flight, the electric field was negligible and the dominant particles were small.
