Weather Briefing
MVFRMano Dayak International Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with clear skies and 7 km visibility. Note: This observation is 23.6 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the southwest (220°) at 6 knots. Runway 25 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 3-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 7 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 31°C (88°F) with a dewpoint of 13°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 24 hours. IFR conditions are expected to persist or develop. An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are recommended. Expected weather includes: Dust. There is a 30% probability of IFR conditions with Dust between 06:00Z and 08:00Z. There is a 40% probability of MVFR conditions between 17:00Z and 21:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
VFR pilots should exercise caution. Consider filing IFR if instrument rated, or postponing the flight if conditions are expected to deteriorate further. 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 Mano Dayak International Airport
Overview
Mano Dayak International Airport serves Agadez, located in northeastern Niger, as a medium-sized airport positioned at 1,657 feet above mean sea level. The airport provides critical aviation infrastructure in a remote desert region, supporting regional transportation and potential resource exploration operations.
Flying Conditions
With 76.2% of observations reporting VFR conditions, the airport offers consistently reliable visual flight conditions. Temperature variations range from 13°C to 42°C, with an average of 29.8°C, indicating significant thermal considerations for aircraft performance. November, September, and October represent the most favorable VFR months for operations.
Notable Features
The airport features a single 9,843-foot asphalted runway (07/25) oriented east-west, which aligns closely with the prevailing easterly winds. Regional terrain is characterized by desert landscapes, with wind patterns demonstrating a consistent easterly flow averaging 9.2 knots and rarely experiencing calm conditions.
Approach Considerations
Runway 07/25 experiences favorable wind alignment 100% of the time, with an average crosswind component of just 4.9 knots. Pilots can expect predictable wind conditions, with maximum recorded wind speeds of 28 knots, which should be considered during performance calculations and approach planning.
