Abstract:
An aircraft weather radar system can include an electronic display, a radar antenna for receiving radar returns, and an electronic processor. The electronic processor can be configured to determine an existence of potential wind shear activity using the radar returns and cause the electronic display to provide an indication of the potential wind shear activity. The potential wind shear activity is different than a wind shear condition associated with a predictive wind shear icon for a wind shear event.
