What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
Air carrier PIC statement
On descent into Pittsburgh, with no indication on the weather radar, wsi weather app on the EFB, OR
Indication from ATC, the fp and I noticed a cumulus type (non-convective) layer of clouds that we
Would be descending through. We decided that there may be some turbulence associated with the
Clouds during the descent and notified the flight attendants to take their seats (prior to entering
The cloud layer) in the event that there was turbulence. As we descended through the cloud layer,
We did experience some turbulence. The rest of the descent and flight was uneventful.
On our walk to the airport hotel in Pittsburgh with the flight attendants, we were told that one of
The flight attendants may have sprained her wrist.
