  • Aviation Weather Services (AC 00-45H)
    U.S. Department Advisory of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Circular Subject: Aviation Weather Services Date: 1/8/18 AC No: 00-45H Initiated by: AFS-400 Change: 1 1 PURPOSE OF THIS ADVISORY CIRCULAR (AC). This AC explains U.S. aviation weather products and services. It provides details when necessary for interpretation and to aid usage. This publication supplements its companion manual, AC 00-6, Aviation Weather, which documents weather theory and its application to aviation. The objective of this AC is to bring the pilot and operator up-to-date on new and evolving weather information and capabilities to help plan a safe and efficient flight, while also describing the traditional weather products that remain. 2 PRINCIPAL CHANGES. This change adds guidance and information on Graphical Forecast for Aviation (GFA), Localized Aviation Model Output Statistics (MOS) Program (LAMP), Terminal Convective Forecast (TCF), Polar Orbiting Environment Satellites (POES), Low-Level Wind Shear Alerting System (LLWAS), and Flight Path Tool graphics. It also updates guidance and information on Direct User Access Terminal Service (DUATS II), Telephone Information Briefing Service (TIBS), and Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR). This change removes information regarding Area Forecasts (FA) for the Continental United States (CONUS). 1/8/18 AC 00-45H CHG 1 PAGE CONTROL CHART Remove Pages Dated Insert Pages Dated Pages iii thru xii 11/14/16 Pages iii thru xiii 1/8/18 Pages 1-8 and 1-9 11/14/16 Page 1-8 1/8/18 Page 3-57 11/14/16 Pages 3-57 thru

Wallace Page 2 Overall Objectives of the Aviation Hazards development plan – all three parts. Page 3 The six(plus) categories that will be covered in the entire module. Page 4 The specific objectives of Part 1. Page 5 William Henry Dines…famous meteorologist of the late 19th through early 20th century. Developed the Pressure Tube (Dines) Anemometer. Did much of his best and most renown work on upper air meteorology – involving kites, (later) balloons and meteorographs (starting in 1901). His meteorographs where famous for being small, lightweight (2oz.) and economical. Member of the Royal Meteorological Society from 1881 until his death in 1928 (president from 1901 through 1902). The “difficulties” he refers to are with regard to both pilot and (forecast) meteorologist – and were: Wind, fog, and clouds. These and other “difficulties” will be addressed throughout the rest of this session. Page 6 (Plus 3) Aviation Weather Center (AWC) – A NOAA/NWS National Support Center that disseminates consistent, timely and accurate weather information for the world airspace system. Disseminates In-flight advisories (AIRMETs, SIGMETs) and provides a portal to much aviation data, such as Aviation Digital Data Service(ADDS). An AIRMET (AIRman's METeorological Information) advises of weather potentially hazardous to all aircraft but that does not meet SIGMET criteria. SIGMETS (Significant Meteorological Information) are issued and amended to warn pilots of weather conditions that are potentially hazardous to all size aircraft and all pilots, such as severe icing or severe turbulence.
