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