I can't help wanting to fly into this formation!

E-ticket Ride

Expect very strong wind and likely to encounter Moderate Turbulence, at least.

It might be a good idea to start a continuous Weather Thread.

Some things to look out for and think about . . .

Nana, I have seen this formation change form completely and caution extreme care. Typically it comes on all hot and wet, but leaves with the house and the boat.

That looks like a short sector Cassidy, looks like the 737!. I did a search on the waypoint, was that in your time in china? Great shot Btw.
