PRECIPITATION
Precipitation (PRECIP) data is not real-time. The lapsed time between collection, processing, and
dissemination of radar images can be significant and may not reflect the current radar synopsis. Due to the
inherent delays and the relative age of the data, it should be used for long-range planning purposes only.
Precipitation data can be displayed on the following maps:
• PFD Inset Map
• Navigation Map Page
• Weather Data Link (GFDS) Page
• Airport Information Page
Displaying Precipitation weather information:
1) Select the MAP Softkey (for the PFD Inset Map, select the INSET Softkey). This step is not necessary on the
Weather Data Link (GFDS) Page.
2) Press the PRECIP Softkey.
Radar data shown represents lowest level, base reflectivity, of radar returns. The display of the information
is color-coded to indicate the weather severity level. All weather product legends can be viewed on the
Weather Data Link (GFDS) Page. For the Precipitation legend (Figure 6-57), select the LEGEND Softkey when
Precipitation is selected for display.
