Weather
Apols for the not amazingly technical nature of this question, but where would a non-pilot be able to get a decently accurate weather report for an impending flight?
Also, in people's experiences, how long before weather reports change at cruising altitudes? (i.e. can I leave it a day or so before flying and still have a *fair* representation of the likely weather, or is it so changeable up there that you could never tell one hour to the next?)
Finally, how would one read a weather report such as the ones so often quoted here? (i.e. what format does a pilot weather report take?)
Thanks,
Mike.
