Aviation Weather Web Site (AWWS)

Aviation Weather Web Site

This Canadian data site is relatively useful for pilots and provides a variation of current forecasts and conditions that a pilot can consider before taking their planned flight route.

Services on this site include: METARs and TAFs

METAR - Aviation Routine Weather Report

METARs are very useful for current weather that has been observed at airports nearby. Pilots can receive METARs via radio and these are reported by the hour.

TAF - Terminal Aerodrome Forecasts

TAFs forecast upcoming weather and are commonly read by meteorologists or through computer simulations which predict the atmospheric weather.
