What counts as icing conditions?
If any form of visible moisture is present (such as clouds, fog with visibility of one mile or less, rain, snow, sleet, ice crystals) or standing water, slush, or snow is present on the ramps, taxiways or runways and the OAT or SAT is +5 degrees and below during ground and flight operation.
