description System and method for detecting adverse atmospheric conditions ahead of an aircraft. The system has multiple, infrared cameras 8 adjusted to spatially detect infrared radiance in different bands of infrared light, wherein each camera is connected to an image processing computer that processes and combines the images, and generates video display signals for producing a video display which indicates the position of the adverse atmospheric conditions relative to the aircraft. Each of the cameras is provided with a respective filter adjusted to filter infrared light with a bandwidth corresponding to infrared bandwidth characteristics of an adverse atmospheric condition from a set of adverse atmospheric conditions. The image processing computer is adapted to identify adverse atmospheric conditions, said identifying being based on threshold conditions and using the detected infrared radiance, data from a look-up table and measured parameters including information on the position and/or attitude of the aircraft. The image processing computer is further adapted to display the identified adverse atmospheric conditions as a spatial image on a display.
