Default What's the latest on "forecast icing = known icing"

Just use the airmets. If there is an airmet for icing, you can't go. If
there is no airmet, you might be able to go if conditions allow it.


In lieu of the new type of icing forecasts that are supposedly going to
grace your local FSS and DUATs this year, one could assume that the FAA is
aware the current icing AIRMETs are too broad-brushed in their coverage for
your advice to be practical to any pilot downwind of the Great Lakes who
desires some utility out of his aircraft October through May.
