Weather Briefing

VFR

Charlevoix Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with few clouds at 16,000 feet and 25 SM visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the east (100°) at 11 knots. Runway 14/32 is favored with a 8-knot headwind and 7-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 25 SM. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 16,000 ft.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 1°C (34°F) with a dewpoint of 1°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: Patches Fog, Mist, Mist, Fog, FCST. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Mist between 06:00Z and 11:00Z. There is a 30% probability of MVFR conditions with Fog between 06:00Z and 11:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

Conditions are favorable for visual flight. 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.

About Charlevoix Airport

Overview

Charlevoix Airport (CYML) is a medium-sized airport located in the Charlevoix region of Canada at 47.597500, -70.223900. Situated at an elevation of 977 feet above mean sea level, the airport serves regional aviation needs in this part of Quebec. Its single runway configuration provides critical transportation infrastructure for the local area.

Flying Conditions

The airport's elevation of 977 ft MSL suggests potential for variable weather conditions typical of inland Quebec. Pilots should anticipate seasonal temperature and wind variations that can impact aircraft performance, particularly during approach and takeoff. The airport's geographical location may introduce localized meteorological phenomena that require careful pre-flight planning.

Notable Features

Runway 14/32 spans 4,501 feet with an asphalt surface, offering substantial length for most medium-sized aircraft operations. The airport's moderate elevation and runway length provide flexibility for various aircraft types and performance envelopes. Its geographical positioning in the Charlevoix region likely involves surrounding terrain that could influence wind patterns and approach strategies.

Approach Considerations

With a single runway oriented 14/32, wind direction will be a critical factor in determining optimal landing and takeoff procedures. Pilots should carefully assess wind conditions and be prepared to adjust approach strategies accordingly. The runway's 4,501-foot length accommodates most regional and medium-sized aircraft, providing a reliable operational platform for aviation activities in the region.
