(b) moderate turbulence, hail or cumulonimbus clouds are encountered during transonic or supersonic flight; or
(c) other meteorological conditions, for example, the other en route weather phenomena specified for SIGMET messages, are encountered
that, in the opinion of the pilot-in-command, may affect the safety or markedly affect the efficiency of other aircraft operations.
