SEA CATs

In recent weeks I have experienced in the SEA region several flights when I had to hit seatbelt bottom fast. Present meteorological conditions seem to be conducive to CAT (no idea yet why, maybe somebody can explain). I usually give instructions during the crew briefing that the cabin shall review their procedures for “sever turbulences” and I make it now a point in the cockpit that one of us is wearing at least the 4 point belts even loosely.
