TURBULENCE FORECAST
Turbulence data identifies the potential for erratic movement of high-altitude air
mass associated winds. Turbulence is classified as light, moderate, severe, or extreme.
Turbulence data is intended to supplement AIRMETs and SIGMETs.

ICING FORECAST (CIP & SLD)
Current Icing Product (CIP) data shows a graphical view of the current icing
environment. Icing severity is displayed in four categories: light, moderate, severe,
and extreme (not specific to aircraft type). The CIP product is not a forecast, but a
representation of the current conditions at the time of the analysis. Altitudes can be
displayed in 3,000-foot increments up to 30,000 feet MSL.
Supercooled Large Droplet (SLD) icing conditions are characterized by the presence
of relatively large, supercooled water droplets indicative of freezing drizzle and freezing
rain aloft. SLD threat areas are depicted as magenta dots over the CIP colors.
