Terminal aerodrome forecast

So kiddo, do you know what a forecast is? It's like when you see the weather on TV and they tell you if it's gonna be sunny or rainy.

Now, a terminal aerodrome forecast is a type of forecast that pilots use when they're flying to or from an airport. It helps them know what kind of weather they can expect at the airport, like if it's gonna be cloudy or windy or rainy.

The forecast includes information like the temperature, the wind direction and speed, whether there will be any rain or snow, and other important details that pilots need to know to fly safely.

So, when someone talks about a terminal aerodrome forecast, they're basically talking about a really important weather report for pilots. It helps them plan their flights and make sure they can land safely at the airport.

Does that make sense, kiddo?
