    This presentation will describe the weather forecast tools used for an actual flight during challenging real winter conditions. It includes views of various forecast tools, how they are used, their strengths and their limitations. Pilots will learn techniques for planning during difficult winter weather, and will learn how aviation weather forecasts are applied in real decision making.
