Weather Briefing
MVFREl Bayadh Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 2,600 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility. Note: This observation is 1.1 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the northwest (310°) at 16 knots. Runway 04/22 is favored with a 0-knot headwind and 16-knot crosswind component. Student pilots and low-time aviators should exercise caution.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 2600 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 25°C (77°F) with a dewpoint of 8°C, indicating very dry conditions. High temperatures at this elevation may result in significant density altitude effects. Pilots should calculate density altitude and adjust performance expectations accordingly.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 9 hours. Conditions are expected to remain MVFR throughout the forecast period. Expected weather includes: Light Thunderstorm Rain. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 2 to 13 knots. There is a 40% probability of MVFR conditions with Light Thunderstorm Rain between 18:00Z and 23:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
VFR pilots should exercise caution. Consider filing IFR if instrument rated, or postponing the flight if conditions are expected to deteriorate further.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.
