Really?
Downroute I usually just give them the approximate flight time and level and they're happy with that! The Shear Rates are often misleading; many times you get a bumpy ride with 1s and 0s and a smooth ride with 9s and 10s
Far more importantly is the expected taxi time 'cos I want my cabin secure before I reach the runway!
And if you (a generic you) don't have enough knowledge of the climate around the network to tell 'em that we'll be passing a belt of potential Cbs at time x into the flight I don't think you should be in the left seat anyway because you're already demonstrating a serious lack of SA!!!
