Weather Briefing
IFRInukjuak Airport is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with broken clouds at 500 feet.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south-southwest (200°) at 17 knots with gusts to 23 knots. Runway 24 is favored with a 13-knot headwind and 11-knot crosswind component (gusting to 15 knots crosswind). Student pilots and low-time aviators should exercise caution.
Visibility & Ceiling
The ceiling is 500 feet AGL (broken). Only precision approaches may be usable depending on minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 0°C (32°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. Temperatures are at or below freezing. Check for icing conditions and ensure aircraft anti-ice/de-ice systems are operational if required.
Pilot Recommendations
An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are required. Verify that destination and alternate approach minimums are above current and forecast conditions. 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.

About Inukjuak Airport
Inukjuak Airport (CYPH/YPH) is located in Inukjuak, CA at an elevation of 83 feet MSL. The airport has 1 runway (06/24), with the longest at 3,500 feet.
Weather Profile
CYPH is weather-challenged, with VFR conditions just 42.6% of the time across 12,582 observations. IFR/LIFR conditions are present 19.6% of the time, making an instrument rating essential for reliable access.
Wind Patterns & Runway Selection
Prevailing winds at CYPH come from the W (270°) with an average speed of 12.7 knots and recorded gusts up to 43 knots. Calm winds are rare (2%), so crosswind considerations are a regular factor. Runway 06/24 offers the lowest average crosswind component at 7.7 knots, making it the preferred choice in typical wind conditions.
Seasonal Considerations
The best months for VFR operations are March, April, February, when clear skies are most prevalent. Temperatures at the field range from -39°C (-38°F) to 13°C (55°F), averaging -12.9°C (9°F). Cold weather operations require attention to aircraft preheating, de-icing, and cold-soaked fuel management. Altimeter settings typically range from 28.21 to 30.6 inHg (955-1036 hPa).
