Some airports have Low Level Wind Sear Alert Systems, but i've never
seen them work.


Most of those systems work by measuring wind direction and velocity
at various points around the airport and comparing them. If there is a
substantial difference between two or more monitoring points, a wind
shear alert is issued.
