An anti-ice system for an aircraft is provided. The system includes one or more sensors that are configured to generate data indicative of one or more of the size, shape, density and type of air borne particles in the vicinity of the aircraft. The one or more sensors are coupled to a data conditioner that is configured to prepare the data for processing. The data conditioner is coupled to a reasoner that is configured to determine from the data, the severity of an icing threat to an airframe, at least one engine and at least one air data probe. One or more controllers are coupled to the reasoner. The one or more controllers automatically operate an anti-icing mechanism for at least one of the at least one engine, the airframe, and the at least one air data probe depending on the icing threats determined by the reasoner.
