Weather Briefing

MVFR

Brant (Dixon Farm) Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 1,500 feet and 15 SM visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the north (350°) at 22 knots with gusts to 30 knots. Runway 34 is favored with a 22-knot headwind and 4-knot crosswind component (gusting to 5 knots crosswind). Student pilots and low-time aviators should exercise caution.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 15 SM. The ceiling is 1500 feet AGL (overcast), placing conditions in the MVFR category.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 8°C (46°F) with a dewpoint of 6°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.

Forecast Outlook

The TAF forecast covers the next 24 hours. The forecast shows a transition between VFR and IFR conditions. Pilots should monitor the forecast closely and have an alternate airport plan. Expected weather includes: Light Rain, Mist, Showers Rain, Mist, Light Showers Rain, Mist, Light Drizzle, Mist, Mist, Fog, FCST. Winds are forecast to reach up to 20 knots during the period. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 3 to 20 knots. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Showers Rain, Mist between 18:00Z and 21:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Rain, Mist between 21:00Z and 03:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Light Drizzle, Mist between 03:00Z and 09:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

VFR pilots should exercise caution. Consider filing IFR if instrument rated, or postponing the flight if conditions are expected to deteriorate further. Gusty conditions may exceed demonstrated crosswind components for many general aviation aircraft. Check your aircraft's limitations. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.
