DESCRIPTION

Use UptoPlay to play online the game Portent Aviation Weather.

The Portent Aviation Weather app provides critical weather data you need to know before flying. METARs, TAFs, and satellite imagery are available worldwide. Winds, temperature, humidity, turbulence, and aircraft icing are shown at selectable flight altitudes across the US along with radar reflectivity, weather and precipitation types, and ceiling and visibility conditions. The Portent app retrieves and displays all of these current and forecast aviation weather conditions in a convenient and easy-to-interpret manner. The Portent app was developed by the original creators of the Aviation Digital Data Service (ADDS). It is fully functional during the 30-day trial period.
Map Features:
- METAR cloud and flight category icons and wind barbs (worldwide, latest surface observations)
- Radar base reflectivity mosaic (US, updated every 10 minutes)
- Satellite visible and infrared wavelengths (worldwide, updated every 30 minutes)
- Forecast radar, satellite, ceiling, visibility, flight category, weather, and precipitation (US, updated every hour out to 15 hours)
- 3D forecast winds, temperature, humidity, turbulence, icing probability and severity (US, selectable altitudes, updated every hour out to 15 hours)
- Basemaps with zoom-appropriate information like cities, roads, rivers, lakes, and airport runways (select "Simple," "Shaded Relief," or "Colored Terrain")
- Time-based animation
- Flight altitude selection for 3D products
Station (METAR and TAF) Features:
- current (METAR) and forecast (TAF) weather conditions
- all sites worldwide
- at-a-glance primary flight conditions (VFR, MVFR, IFR, LIFR)
- user-customized lists of stations
- full text METAR/TAF available
- user-friendly display of clouds, visibility, winds, and weather
- the age of each report along with the current Zulu (UTC) time
Note:
- Some countries METAR and TAF reports may be formatted inconsistently compared to international standards. In those rare cases, reports may not be decoded and displayed as intended.
- Only U.S./English units are shown. A future release may support metric units.
Weather data are collected from reliable United States government sources, but we cannot guarantee that they will be available at all times. Portent Aviation Weather is for pre-flight purposes only and should not be used in flight. Worldwide, there are many sites that report current (METAR) data, but do not have official TAFs.

Comments:

This is my go to weather report for flying. This is just like calling Flight Service where they list enroute individual airport reporting of weather. To me, the map is an added bonus for a representation of the overall weather picture. It takes a bit of exploring to find all of the features of this program but it is time well spent. I have used the program several years. I never fly without consulting Portent,. A quick scan of the visual representation it's often all I need.

Very simple and easy to use. There are a lot of weather apps that tend to give you more information than you need when all you really want is the weather and nothing else. Mind you, this isn't WeatherBug, or The Weather Channel, this app is for professionals who understand and know how to read the information that is on the maps. Good job developers! You definitely thought outside the weather app box to give us the weather and nothing else.

Just downloaded and haven't used this app at all for any weather information concerning a flight. It seems like an app based on aviationweather.gov's HEMS tool. I like that it has the station plot when the METAR layer is checked. However, there are some things I've noticed that can be approved upon. You should be able to apply multiple layers such as radar and flight category at the same time. Also, I couldn't find any place in the app that allows you to view TAF's. Again, preliminary review.

Add aircraft flight routing. Like fltplan go, big win if you could add flight tracking as well. Other than that nice presentation.

Data does not load and app crashes'
