Weather Briefing

MVFR

Wainwright / Camp Wainwright Field is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 3,100 feet and 8 SM visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the north-northwest (340°) at 14 knots with gusts to 33 knots. The significant gust spread of 19 knots may cause challenging turbulence on approach. Runway 03/21 is favored with a 9-knot headwind and 11-knot crosswind component (gusting to 25 knots crosswind). Student pilots and low-time aviators should exercise caution.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 8 SM. The ceiling is 1300 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 10°C (50°F) with a dewpoint of 10°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 7 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, Light Rain, Mist, Light Rain, FCST. Winds are forecast to reach up to 20 knots during the period. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Light Rain, Mist between 23:00Z and 05:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Light Rain, FCST between 05:00Z and 06:00Z.

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.

This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.
