This way you don’t have to page through the list of all ground stations
searching for a reference to the airport for which you want a forecast.
Other agencies around the world like the FAA also broadcast VOL-
METS. These can be very useful when flying over water. The New
York station, for example, may be received as you are flying over the
North Atlantic and allow you to begin planning your arrival and alter-
nate intentions based on forecast weather for the airports you are
planning to use.
ICAO agreements call for changes in the existing frequencies
assigned for VOLMET broadcasts, and activating new VOLMET
broadcasts in some regions which don’t have any at this time. This
transition is currently in progress. Therefore, you should check cur-
rent aeronautical publications and NOTAMs for the most recent infor-
mation on frequencies and broadcasts in use.
