I live in the southeastern U.S. and flying here in the summer is not only hot, but wraught with thunderstorms. Here is where the CCFP comes in. This ‘weather product’ (i.e. map) indicates where convective activity is likely to develop. Areas are outlined in one of two colors – one color is for “high confidence” (50%-100%) areas and the other is “low confidence” (25%-49%). Each area is also shaded to depict the coverage from sparse to solid. The information is produced several times daily during the ‘severe weather season’, which roughly correlates to when Daylight Savings Time is in effect.
You can find the CCFP on the Aviation Weather web site.
