Inflight advisories notify enroute pilots of the possibility of encountering ______ flying conditions that may not have been forecast at the time of preflight briefing.

Inflight advisories are meant to alert pilots en route to the possibility of hazardous weather that may not have been forecast at the time of the preflight briefing. They focus on conditions that can threaten safety, such as severe turbulence, icing, strong winds, low ceilings or visibility, or significant convective activity. Benign, mild, or moderate describes less concerning conditions, whereas hazardous captures the level of risk these advisories are designed to communicate.
