Great thread!

Some very funny comments, esp. from Tightslot and Rainboe

Mine are pretty boring (I work for QLINK - Qantas regional turboprop)

Wind in Kilometres per hour (mental conversion from knots)
Temperature (Celsius)
Low cloud (if we have to do an ILS)
Some cloud (everything else except "blue sky" or "starry night")
Rainy (covers everything from one or two spots to a monsoon)
Bumpy (some turbulence on approach)
Quite Bumpy (unsecured items may find themselves across the aisle)
"Bumpy and I suggest you have your seatbelts done up firmly" (never had to explain that one)

DIVOSH!
