Cape May County to Rhode Island TF Green International WWD → PVD

228 nautical miles (262 statute miles) northeast on a straight line, true course 043°, about 053° magnetic at the departure end (variation 10W). At 120 knots that is 1 h 21 min at the quickest height in today's winds (34,000 ft, a 49-knot tailwind), arriving about 11:29 am EDT (15:29 UTC). Right now WWD is IFR, wind from the north-northwest (340°) at 10 knots, gusting to 16; PVD is IFR, wind from the north (010°) at 11 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: 2 flights in the DOT's last twelve reported months, the route's page.

The return flight

The route the straight line, the warnings crossed, restrictions, pilot reports and the airports along the way · click a mark for its words

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 SIERRA 3E: low cloud or poor visibility (IFR conditions) (due to ceilings below 1,000 ft, visibility below 3 miles, precipitation, mist). Over the whole route.
  • AIRMET TANGO 3W: moderate turbulence above 18,000 ft from 24,000 ft to 40,000 ft. Over the last 218 nm of the route.

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 WWD.

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

  • A320 at 24,000 ft, 38 nm northwest, 9:42 am EDT (13:42 UTC): moderate turbulence. At the destination end, 38 nm northwest of the line.

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.
