ABSTRACT An apparatus fox measuring the temperature lapse rate of the environment surround an aircraft in flight is described. The measured temperature lapse rate is compared with the dry adiabatic temperature lapse rate. If the measured temperature lapse rate is less than the dry adiabatic temperature lapse rate, a cautionary message is issued to the flight crew alerting them of the probability of microburst windshears. In addition, if the cautionary message has been issued and a rapid reversal of the measured temperature lapse rate occurs, a warning message is issued to the flight crew advising them of the probable penetration of a microburst windshear.
