GRAPHICAL WEATHER (OPTIONAL) (Cont)
GRAPHICAL WEATHER (GWX-3000)
The Graphical Weather (GWX-3000) function allows the pilot to view GWX images or reports on the MFD. Weather re-
ports include SIGMET and AIRMET advisories and METARs. Terminal Area Forecast (TAF) are also available. Observa-
tion images include NEXRAD and Echo Tops. Selection of the desired images is via the GRAPHICAL WEATHER menu.
Graphical images are for the whole of the contiguous United States only. GWX is for informational purposes only. By its
very nature, GWX is delayed from real time weather conditions.
Weather products are transmitted by the satellite on the intervals listed in the following table:
