Merle K (Mudhole) Smith Airport to Seattle-Tacoma International CDV → SEA

1,121 nautical miles (1,290 statute miles) southeast on a straight line, true course 124°, about 105° magnetic at the departure end (variation 19E). At 120 knots that is 7 h 08 min at the quickest height in today's winds (34,000 ft, a 37-knot tailwind), arriving about 10:49 am PDT (17:49 UTC). Right now CDV is marginal VFR, wind calm; SEA is VFR, wind from the southeast (140°) at 8 knots. For planning, not a briefing: the legal preflight briefing comes from Flight Service (1-800-WX-BRIEF) or the FAA's own tools. Airlines fly this pair: 9 flights in the DOT's last twelve reported months, the route's page.

Green, blue, red and purple airport dots are the flying conditions reported there now (VFR, marginal VFR, IFR, low IFR); grey means no report. Red areas are SIGMETs, orange areas AIRMETs, hatched red areas temporary flight restrictions. Map tiles: OpenFreeMap, data © OpenStreetMap contributors.

Warnings the route crosses SIGMETs and AIRMETs whose area the line passes through or comes within 25 nm of

  • AIRMET ZULU 2C: moderate icing from 11,000 ft to 18,000 ft, from 1:00 am AKDT (09:00 UTC). Over the route from 1052 to 1082 nm out.

Turbulence No turbulence warning in force along the route. 1 pilot report of turbulence near the line in the last three hours: light chop turbulence from 31,000 ft to 33,000 ft, 12 nm north, 1:52 am AKDT (09:52 UTC). The government's turbulence forecast map ↗

Icing AIRMET in force: moderate icing from 11,000 ft to 18,000 ft, over the route from 1052 to 1082 nm out. No pilot has reported icing near the line in the last three hours. The freezing level is below 7,500 ft, the lowest forecast height, so any cloud could carry ice. The government's icing forecast map ↗

A SIGMET warns of weather hazardous to all aircraft; an AIRMET of weather that matters to small aircraft and to flying without instruments. "From 60 to 180 nm out" is measured along the route from CDV.

Pilot reports along the route within 50 nm of the line, last three hours, the serious ones first

  • B747 at 31,000 ft, 12 nm north, 1:52 am AKDT (09:52 UTC): light chop turbulence from 31,000 ft to 33,000 ft, remarks: during the climb zan. At the departure end, 12 nm north of the line.

Based on data from the 13th at 06:00 UTC; valid on the 13th at 12:00 UTC for use 08:00 to 15:00 UTC; temperatures above 24,000 ft are below zero. Heights are above sea level; a height is left out when the forecast has no wind for it over most of the line (the ground is higher). Ground speed is the airspeed less the headwind; the time en route is for the straight line and ignores climb, descent and routing around weather.

From the FAA's notice service (NOTAMs), the site's copy refreshed every few minutes; last checked 1 minutes ago. The FAA has so far issued eFlight its test feed, which misses some notices (checked against the FAA's own search on 12 October: about a third missing at Santa Barbara and Burbank, none at Atlanta or Las Vegas); the request for the full feed is with the FAA. Times are local to the field. This is for planning; the legal briefing comes from Flight Service or the FAA's own tools.

Daylight

Sunset at CDV 6:34 pm AKDT (02:34 UTC), at SEA 6:23 pm PDT (01:23 UTC) (civil twilight ends 6:54 pm PDT (01:54 UTC)).

Each restriction opens the FAA's own page with the exact area, heights and times.

Colours show wind speed, the moving lines its direction, at the surface unless you pick a height. Map and forecast by Windy.com; a second opinion beside the government's winds-aloft table above.
