"When it starts to pile up or when there is unforseen fog" its too late for the "early warning system"!!! What do you want?? Inflight refueling????
No. But if contrary to the TAF fog suddenly sets in (happened in NOV), then a acars to all inbound would be nice (was somewhat standard practice at my former airline, so it's possible). Second, if one or more surrounding alternates runs out of space, again such info is valuable if received early. All this is called ACTIVE Flight Watch.



EK has not had a single landing with fuel below CMR since the start of Fuelmon recording
and now to our beloved Mr. Mach 0.5: If you managed to creep out of your pityfull armchair and would actually read what's up at EK, then you wouldn't have missed the latest Weekly. But I guess either you're so far away from EK that you should shut up, or you're so obsessed to creep into dark holes that you display the same ignorance to daily matters as the holes.
