Frequently Asked Questions
What aviation weather data is available?
WeatherAI provides decoded METARs and TAFs where available, with flight category indicators (VFR, MVFR, IFR, LIFR). Standard and Pro add PIREPs, SIGMETs and AIRMETs, and a turbulence layer on the map, and Pro adds atmospheric soundings.
How often do METARs update?
Routine METARs are issued hourly. Special METARs (SPECIs) are issued when significant weather changes occur between routine observations.
Can I see flight categories on a map?
Yes, WeatherAI displays color-coded flight category indicators for airports, making it easy to see VFR, MVFR, IFR, and LIFR conditions at a glance.
Can I use WeatherAI for flight planning?
No. WeatherAI presents aviation weather for information and situational awareness. It is not an FAA-approved flight-planning, briefing, or dispatch tool, so get a qualified weather briefing from an approved source, along with current NOTAMs, before every flight.
