Flight Predictions
Below are links to interactive Google maps showing flight predictions from different states using historic weather data from April 7, 8, and 9 in each 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022. Each path of dots represents a different prediction day. Using the panel on the left, the trajectories for each of the different locations can be toggled on and off by clicking the red/orange check mark box.
The trajectories are color coated in 4500-meter increments, with the purple/darker colors being the lower altitudes and the red/brighter colors being the higher altitudes. The floating altitude and duration for these trajectories are 22860 meters (75,000 feet) and 60 minutes.
