What kind of weather will affect air travel?

Wind shear is a dangerous weather that affects flight safety. Wind shear is the sudden change of wind direction and wind speed in a short distance. Strong wind shear will make the plane go around prematurely or be forced to go around. Under certain conditions, it will also lead to aircraft stall and uncontrollable danger, and even lead to flight accidents. Snow blowing in dangerous weather that affects flight safety When there is snow on the ground, strong winds blow it up and fly in the air near the ground. Visibility is less than 10 km. If the snow is blown by the wind and the height exceeds 2 meters, it is called high blowing snow. If the height is less than 2 meters, it is called low blowing snow. Dangerous weather thunderstorm that affects flight safety is a weather phenomenon produced in cumulonimbus clouds with strong vertical development. This phenomenon is accompanied by heavy precipitation, lightning, sudden change of wind direction, and sometimes hail. There are several types of thunderstorms: air mass thunderstorms are divided into convective thunderstorms and topographic thunderstorms. Frontal thunderstorm can be divided into cold front, frontal front, warm front, stationary front and high-altitude frontal thunderstorm. Impact of Thunderstorm on Flight: Thunderstorm produces bumps (including updraft and downdraft). Ice, lightning, hail and strong wind all cause great difficulties in flying, which will seriously make the plane out of control, damaged and reduce horsepower.
