Weather Briefing
VFRRegina International Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 24,000 feet and 15 SM visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south-southwest (210°) at 5 knots. Runway 26 is favored with a 3-knot headwind and 4-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 15 SM. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 7,000 ft, scattered at 24,000 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 20°C (68°F) with a dewpoint of 16°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.
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: Mist, Light Showers Rain, FCST. There is a 40% probability of LIFR conditions with Mist between 12:00Z and 15:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Rain between 20:00Z and 01:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. 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.

About Regina International Airport
Overview
Regina International Airport serves Saskatchewan's capital city, situated in the southern prairie region of Canada. As a medium-sized airport, it handles regional and commercial aviation traffic, supporting essential transportation links for the province. The airport's elevation of 1894 ft MSL and geographic location at 50.431900, -104.666000 positions it in a strategic transportation corridor.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Regina demonstrate significant seasonal variability, with visual flight rules (VFR) predominating 62.4% of observations. Pilots can expect challenging conditions during winter months, with temperatures ranging from -36°C to 31°C and an average of -2.4°C. Wind patterns are predominantly from the southeast at 135° with an average speed of 11 knots, occasionally reaching maximum gusts of 42 knots.
Notable Features
The airport features two asphalt runways: 08/26 (6200 ft) and 13/31 (7900 ft), providing operational flexibility for different aircraft types. Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind conditions, with modest average crosswind components of 7.7 knots for 08/26 and 4.1 knots for 13/31. Visibility averages 12.6 statute miles, with occasional reduced conditions including fog (6.2% of observations) and visibility below 3 miles in 5.6% of reports.
Approach Considerations
September through November represent the most consistent VFR conditions for operations. Instrument meteorological conditions occur in 19.4% of observations (combined MVFR and IFR), requiring pilots to be prepared for potential alternate planning. The prevailing southeast winds and minimal crosswind components generally support straightforward approaches to both primary runways, with consistent wind characteristics facilitating predictable landing conditions.
