What does "1/8-2/8" of cloud coverage typically indicate?

The option indicating "Few clouds" is correct because when cloud coverage is described as "1/8-2/8," it signifies that only a small portion of the sky is obscured by clouds, typically referring to a situation where the sky is mostly clear with just a few clouds visible. In meteorological terms, this range reflects a relatively minor presence of clouds, where the majority of the sky remains unobstructed, allowing for good visibility and generally favorable flying conditions.

In contrast, "scattered clouds" refers to a coverage of clouds that occupies more of the sky, typically ranging from 3/8 to 4/8 cloud coverage, which is more than what is indicated by the "few clouds" description. "Broken clouds" signifies a larger portion of the sky filled with clouds, usually covering between 5/8 to 7/8, indicating more significant cloud presence. "Clear skies" would mean there are no clouds at all, which does not align with the specified coverage of "1/8-2/8." Understanding these classifications helps pilots effectively assess weather conditions for safe drone operations.
