Who directly receives the data from the LLWAS system?

Explanation:
LLWAS is designed to provide real-time wind shear information to those running the airspace at the airport so they can respond immediately. The system sends its alerts to air traffic control, who monitor and manage arrivals and departures and can issue warnings or instructions to pilots as needed. Pilots rely on ATC for wind-shear advisories or weather updates encountered during approach and departure, rather than receiving LLWAS data directly from the system. MET offices may use wind data for broader weather analyses, but the direct point of contact for LLWAS alerts is air traffic control.
