Consultation description

Proposal to revise the aerodrome weather warnings service. Currently aerodrome weather warnings are provided by the Met Office with mitigation measures applied as a result of receipt of these warnings.

Changes are that aerodrome warnings are:

  • to be issued via a web-based product, supported by an optional e-mail alert
  • freely accessible at the point of use to multiple users (subject to registration)
  • to be issued routinely every 6 hours, 4 times per day, for the period 6 to 12 hours ahead
  • integration and coherence with the Public Weather Service National Severe Weather Warning Service (NSWWS)
  • supplemented by a more specific (paid for) service
