A. Smooth air, poor visibility, fog, haze, or low clouds.

B. Light wind shear, poor visibility, haze, and light rain.

C. Turbulent air, poor visibility, fog, low stratus type clouds, and showery precipitation.

Answer: A. Smooth air, poor visibility, fog, haze, or low clouds.

An inversion is very stable air. The air stays smooth, but moisture and haze are trapped beneath it, giving fog, haze or low cloud.
