4.8.14 XM PIREPs
Pilot Weather Reports (PIREPs) provide timely weather information for a
particular route of flight. When significant weather conditions are reported or
forecast, Air Traffic Control (ATC) facilities are required to solicit PIREPs. A
PIREP may contain non-forecast adverse weather conditions, such as low in-
flight visibility, icing conditions, wind shear, and turbulence. PIREPs are issued
as either Routine (UA) or Urgent (UUA).
