Weather Briefing
MVFRAltiport de Peyresourde Balestas is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 2,200 feet and 8 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the west (260°) at 11 knots. Runway 27 is favored with a 11-knot headwind and 2-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 8 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. The ceiling is 1200 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 2,000 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 7°C (45°F) with a dewpoint of 6°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 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: Light Rain, Rain, Light Showers Rain. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Rain between 00:00Z and 06:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Rain between 10:00Z 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 narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.
