For aviation purposes, ceiling is defined as the height above the Earth's surface of the:
Lowest reported obscuration and the highest layer of clouds reported as overcast.

To determine the freezing level and areas of probable icing aloft, the pilot should refer to the:
Inflight aviation weather advisories.
Weather depiction chart.
Area forecast.
Radar weather reports are of special interest to pilots because they indicate:
Large areas of low ceilings and fog.
Location of precipitation along with type, intensity, and cell movement of precipitation.
Location of precipitation along with type, intensity, and trend.
How should contact be established with a Flight Watch station, and what service would be expected?
