Most Common Hazards
Winter Season: fog and low stratus – not uncommon for long
stretches of IFR or even LIFR conditions
Summer Season: fire weather – where are the large fires/will smoke impact terminals?

Next Steps: Meteorology to Outreach
Communicating our products/hazards
1) Getting out and providing talks
2) Going to events and setting up a booth
Being proactive in our approach
Contact pilot groups
Contact the airport managers
See where that leads…

Images for Wenatchee BoothFreezing Precipitation Pattern
Key Takeaways
Warm frontal precipitation
overruns much colder air at the
surface
Best set up for widespread
freezing precipitation is after
modified Arctic air settles in
over the Inland Northwest
Low level jet will funnel up
through the Columbia Gorge,
across the Columbia Basin

Cold-air damming lee of Cascades
Valleys in the lee of the
Cascades are the last to mix out
and modify with subfreezing
temperatures at the surface
Typically after an Arctic Intrusion

In Conclusion…
Here is Spokane, we are taking a proactive approach to aviation outreach
Plenty of opportunities have been found by reaching out to pilot
associations and airport managers
These discussions lead to a better understanding of our aviation customers
Creating a resource of discussion topics and strategies for hosting a booth
at events will more likely get other forecasters involved
Thank You!
