Weather Briefing

LIFR

Arthur (Metz Field) is currently reporting low IFR (LIFR) conditions with broken clouds at 200 feet and 2 SM visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the southeast (140°) at 8 knots. Runway 14/32 is favored with a 8-knot headwind and 0-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is reduced to 2 SM. IFR conditions prevail and an instrument clearance is required for operations in controlled airspace. The ceiling is very low at 200 feet AGL (broken), well below circling minimums at most airports.

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 12 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: Mist, Light Showers Rain, FCST, FCST. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Mist between 02:00Z and 06:00Z. Temporary VFR conditions are forecast with Mist between 06:00Z and 08:00Z. Temporary VFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Rain, FCST, FCST between 12:00Z and 14:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

Current conditions require an instrument rating, IFR-equipped aircraft, and an IFR clearance. Check approach minimums carefully as conditions may be below CAT I ILS minimums. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours.

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