Abstract

This presentation begins by discussing the types of aviation weather delays, geographical impacts on delay, and causes of delay. Attention is then focused on statistics showing that weather is still a factor in aviation accidents. The discussion then turns to weather forecasting, with comments on the National Convective Weather Forecast Product, the Corridor Integrated Weather System, and the Integrated Terminal Weather System.
