Aviation Hazards Screensaver

The Aviation Hazards screensaver shows sIGMETs and AIRMETs in force right now — turbulence, icing, volcanic ash and convective weather — gathered key-less by the pipeline. Informational only, and not a flight planning tool. It's free, runs in your browser, and ESC exits.

How the Aviation Hazards screensaver works

The background pipeline reads this from the NOAA Aviation Weather Center and saves a snapshot the saver loads.

SIGMETs and AIRMETs in force right now — turbulence, icing, volcanic ash and convective weather — gathered key-less by the pipeline.

It refreshes on a schedule, so what you see stays current.

Colours can be changed in settings; nothing is stored beyond your own browser.
