What we ingest

Decoded FB winds-temps-aloft data for FAA-defined forecast points.

Where this feed reaches

A region on this list means we fetch it. It is not a promise of station density: a listed region can still have sparse or no reporting sites near a given airport. Where a feed does not reach a region at all, this page says so instead of showing an empty panel.
