Weather Briefing
VFRRodez–Aveyron Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 4,900 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility. Note: This observation is 4.6 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the southeast (130°) at 12 knots. Runway 13/31 is favored with a 12-knot headwind and 0-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 4900 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums. Caution: towering cumulus clouds reported at 5,000 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 18°C (64°F) with a dewpoint of 11°C, indicating moderate moisture conditions.
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: Showers Rain, Thunderstorm Rain. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 3 to 15 knots. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Showers Rain between 18:00Z and 23:00Z. There is a 40% probability of IFR conditions with Thunderstorm Rain between 18:00Z and 21:00Z. There is a 30% probability of VFR conditions between 08:00Z and 12:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About Rodez–Aveyron Airport
Overview
Rodez–Aveyron Airport serves the Aveyron region in southern France, situated at an elevation of 1,910 feet MSL. Located near the city of Rodez, this medium-sized airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for regional transportation and serves both commercial and general aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Rodez–Aveyron exhibit significant variability, with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) conditions prevailing 48.9% of the time. Pilots should anticipate potential instrument meteorological conditions, as IFR and LIFR conditions combine for approximately 34.2% of observations. The airport experiences prevailing southeast winds at an average of 8.3 knots, with temperature ranges spanning from -13°C to 30°C.
Notable Features
The airport's single runway 13/31 is 6,693 feet long with an asphalt surface, providing substantial landing capacity for regional aircraft. Its elevated terrain at 1,910 feet MSL requires careful performance calculations, particularly during temperature extremes. The statistical wind data indicates a highly favorable wind alignment, with runway 13/31 aligned favorably 100% of the time and an average crosswind of only 3.3 knots.
Approach Considerations
Optimal VFR flying conditions occur during October, January, and September, offering the most consistent weather patterns. Pilots should be prepared for potential fog events, which occur in 14.1% of observations, and be aware of wind speeds that can occasionally reach up to 30 knots. The southeast prevailing winds suggest runway 13 will typically be the preferred approach direction.
