In one example, this disclosure is directed to a system configured to receive a first set of weather data from an onboard weather data system disposed on an aircraft. The system is configured to receive a second set of weather data from a remote weather data system separate from the aircraft, wherein the second set of weather data and the first set of weather data provide coverage at least in part of an overlapping volume of airspace and an overlapping time interval. The system is configured to determine whether a difference between the first set of weather data and the second set of weather data is above a nominal threshold of difference. The system is configured to generate a corrective output in response to determining that the difference between the first set of weather data and the second set of weather data is above the nominal threshold of difference
