| 摘要： | The concept of an aviation section in the Area Forecast Discussion (AFD) was endorsed by NWS aviation customers at the National Aviation Workshop in 2003 and at the Western U.S. Aviation Workshop in 2004. NWS customers saw the need to overcome some of the restrictions that are inherent to the Terminal Area Forecast (TAF), such as the inability to indicate a 30 or 40 percent chance of weather affecting the terminal during the initial 9 hours of the TAF, severe weather potential, or ability to express forecaster confidence. Consequently, Western Region Headquarters (WRH) set policy in early 2005 for Weather Forecast Offices (WFO) to include a mandatory aviation discussion section in the AFD. Individual offices were given latitude to develop content and to define the audience/customer to which the aviation discussion was to be addressed. The Salt Lake City (SLC) WFO chose to direct its aviation discussion toward weather issues impacting the SLC International Airport since it is a pacing airport that has an effect on the flow of air traffic nationally. As far as content, the only requirement was to keep it short and concise and not to make it a repeat of what already was covered in the TAF. Within the first several months of the implementation of the aviation section to the AFD an increasingly large variety of information was being disseminated from Western Region offices. |
