Caution : Aviation weather forecasts predict the presence of cumulonimbus (CB), which are known to be dangerous for aircraft because they are associated with winds that can be violent and change speed and direction very quickly, both horizontally and vertically (updrafts and downdrafts). They are also associated with thunderstorms, rain showers, and hailstorms that can be violent. It is therefore recommended to avoid them as much as possible..
