Abstract: An aircraft weather radar system can include an electronic display, a radar antenna for receiving radar returns, and an electronic processor. The electronic processor can be configured to determine an existence of potential wind shear activity using the radar returns and cause the electronic display to provide an indication of the potential wind shear activity. The potential wind shear activity is different than a wind shear condition associated with a predictive wind shear icon for a wind shear event.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media relating to providing weather data generated by a weather radar system of an aircraft are provided. The method includes receiving radar returns from at least one of a horizontal radar scan and a vertical radar scan. The method includes detecting a plurality of weather cells based on at least one of the horizontal radar scan and the vertical radar scan. The method includes providing display data representative of the plurality of weather cells. The method includes automatically providing updated display data representative of the plurality of weather cells based on at least one of an additional horizontal radar scan and an additional vertical radar scan.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media relating to providing weather data generated by a weather radar system of an aircraft are provided. A method comprises transmitting scan status data indicating that a weather cell is currently being scanned by the weather radar system to a display device. The display device is configured to display an indication that the weather cell is currently being scanned after receiving the scan status data.
