• AIRMET SIERRA 4E: low cloud or poor visibility (IFR conditions) (due to ceilings below 1,000 ft, visibility below 3 miles, precipitation, mist). Over the first 805 nm of the route.
• AIRMET TANGO 1W: low-level wind shear (due to air speed loss or gain of 20 knots or more below 2,000 ft above the ground). Over the route from 308 to 348 nm out.
• AIRMET ZULU 2C: moderate icing up to 23,000 ft. Over the route from 348 to 974 nm out.
