Weather Briefing

IFR

Aérodrome de Castelsarrasin Moissac is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with broken clouds at 2,400 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the west (280°) at 6 knots. Runway 28 is favored with a 6-knot headwind and 0-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 800 feet AGL (broken). Only precision approaches may be usable depending on minimums.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 9°C (48°F) with a dewpoint of 8°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.

Forecast Outlook

The TAF forecast covers the next 9 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: Light RADZ, Light Showers Rain. There is a 40% probability of IFR conditions with Light RADZ between 03:00Z and 07:00Z. There is a 40% probability of MVFR conditions with Light Showers Rain between 10:00Z and 12:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are required. Verify that destination and alternate approach minimums are above current and forecast conditions. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours.

This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.
