AYON ALFONSO, Juan; SALOMON LLANES, Jesús  e  SIERRA LORENZO, Maibys. Forecast of vertical clouds clusters in the Flight Information Region of Cuba. Energética [online]. 2023, vol.44, n.1, pp. 55-64.  Epub 23-Mar-2023. ISSN 1815-5901.

The aviation requires actualized and available meteorological information in a very short period of time, in order to guarantee the flight safety. Each state has assigned a region for the control of the flights and for the surveillance of the weather conditions. When it is present or is forecasted the possibility of the occurrence of great vertical developed clouds clusters that could affect the normal flight of the aircrafts, those meteorological watch offices shall transmits the appropriated alerts. Taking into consideration that, for tropical atmospheric conditions, it was developed an index that shows the degree of atmospheric instability, it is proposed the application of this forecast method for such tropical conditions and supporteing the calculations by the numerical prediction system of short period of time (SisPi) developed by the Cuban Meteorological Institute, obtaining satisfactory results.

Palavras-chave : aircraft; vertical developed cloud clusters; forecasts; numerical models.
