MVFRGöteborg Landvetter Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 1,800 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south-southwest (200°) at 8 knots. Runway 21 is favored with a 8-knot headwind and 1-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 1800 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 13°C (55°F) with a dewpoint of 8°C, indicating moderate moisture conditions.
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: Rain, Light Rain, Patches Fog. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Light Rain between 20:00Z and 06:00Z. There is a 40% probability of LIFR conditions with Patches Fog between 23:00Z and 03:00Z.
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 Göteborg Landvetter Airport
Overview
Göteborg Landvetter Airport serves as the primary international airport for western Sweden's largest metropolitan area. Located near Göteborg, this airport handles significant commercial passenger and cargo traffic, supporting regional and international connections. The airport's elevation of 506 feet above mean sea level provides a moderate terrain profile for aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
Sweden's western coastal region experiences variable maritime weather conditions with significant seasonal temperature and wind variations. Pilots should anticipate potential low visibility and precipitation, particularly during autumn and winter months. The airport's long primary runway (03/21 measuring 10,823 feet) provides substantial operational flexibility for diverse aircraft types and challenging meteorological scenarios.
Notable Features
The airport is situated in a transitional landscape between coastal and inland terrains, which can generate complex local wind patterns and potential turbulence. Its geographic coordinates (57.662800, 12.279800) place it in a region with moderate topographical relief. The asphalt runway surface supports year-round operations with appropriate surface friction characteristics.
Approach Considerations
Runway 03/21's extended length allows for comprehensive approach options across multiple wind conditions. The airport's substantial runway length enables safe operations for wide-body commercial aircraft and provides additional margin during challenging meteorological circumstances. Pilots should conduct standard terrain and approach briefings, considering the regional atmospheric dynamics and potential wind variability.
