It will keep you out of the killer turbulence, whereas radar
only keeps you out of the wet stuff. IMHO of course! ;-)))

In 45 years and over 20,000 hours of flying, every instance of
"killer turbulence" that I encountered WAS associated with the
"wet stuff". Most of those years were spent flying out of Florida
to the Inter-tropical Convergence Zone...thunderstorm alley. I
have always found that avoiding the wet stuff is the best plan of
action.
