• A. Continental Weather Advisories
• B. Center Weather Advisories
• C. Civil Weather Advisories
• D. California Weather Advisories

Answer: (B)

Center Weather Advisories stands for Center Weather Advisories. These advisories come from the center weather units to inform pilots and ATC about weather phenomena in en-route airspace that could affect flight operations but aren’t severe enough to require a SIGMET. They typically cover significant but non-convective weather, such as icing, turbulence, or reduced visibility, and are valid for a limited time to aid planning and routing. The other options don’t fit because they don’t correspond to the established name of this aviation weather product.
