General Discussion Don't know where to post a question? Maybe just a general or broad topic of discussion? Like to share your favorite aviation weather story or adverse weather encounter? This would be the place to post it, but please keep the discussion related to aviation. Moderator Scott |

Internet Wx Brief Roadmap Given the fact that there are so many potential links to view throughout The Weather Report, this forum represents a roadmap for a subset of links to use based on your approximate time of departure. In this forum there are multiple "sticky posts" that will include links based on the time before departure to include a departure within 12 hrs, within 24 hrs, between 1 and 2 days, and 3 days and beyond. |

Scott's Weather Lesson Of The Week Check out this collection of short tutorials. Each week Scott will post a short lesson on a variety of different aviation weather topics. See the General Discussion Forum for a couple of sample posts from this forum. New entries to this forum will be discontinued. e-Tips will replace this weekly discussion. Moderator Scott |

Clouds, Fog and Visibility Fog, reduced visibility and low clouds keep more pilots on the ground than any other single weather factor, VFR or IFR. Learn about the role of advection as a prime producer of fog and reduced visibility. Moderator Scott |

Thunderstorms Thunderstorms are perhaps the most difficult weather element to forecast with any long-term accuracy. Learn about the various forecast products and key forecast indicators of thunderstorm potential to include lifted index, Showalter index, K-index and CAPE. Moderator Scott |

Structural Icing If you are a frequent flyer below FL300, then you should spend some time participating in this forum. This is the place to discuss the meteorological factors associated with structural icing. Moderator Scott |

Turbulence Turbulence is perhaps the most difficult adverse weather element to visualize on the weather map. There are four kinds of turbulence to include mountain wave, mechanical, thermal and clear air. How do you know you're in for a bumpy ride? What altitudes will get you a smoother ride?

Skew-T Log P Diagrams This tool gets its own forum. The Skew-T Log P diagram is one of most valuable tools available to pilots. It will tell you more about the kind of weather you will face than just about any other tool. Convection, icing, cloud bases and tops, turbulence and wind shear are just a few of the benefits of this tool. Got a question about this intriguing diagram, feel free to ask. Moderator Scott |

Numerical Weather Prediction Models Nearly all short-term and long-term forecasts are based from numerical weather prediction (NWP) models. If you want to get beyond a simple DUATs briefing, models are in your future. If you have any questions about models or interpreting model output, this is the place to post. Moderator Scott |

Satellite Meteorology Visible, infrared and water vapor images represent important tools for pilots to understand the current weather. Additionally, watching the recent history in satellite loops adds an additional dimension to the movement of any adverse weather. Moderator Scott |

Tropical Meteorology Hurricane season starts June 1 and continues through November 30 with the peak around September 10. The greatest threat is storm surge and intense rainfall/flooding. Tropical remanents can exhibit a tremendous amount of shear even if the Nexrad signature is not all that impressive and little or no lightning is present within landfalling tropical cyclones.

Weather Archives As a pilot, it is very important to see the predicted weather. However, some of our best learning occurs when we see what really happened in the past. Compiled here will be a set of links to various weather archive web sites to see a peek of the recent past. Moderator Scott |

Terms/Definitions/Abbreviations Meteorologists still use a ton of abbreviations, terms, jargon and other acronynms. This set of links will provide you with a comprehensive resource to translate those tough forecast discussions. Moderator Scott |
