Weather Briefing
VFRDebrecen International Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with clear skies.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south (190°) at 11 knots. Runway 22 is favored with a 10-knot headwind and 6-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 31°C (88°F) with a dewpoint of 6°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 9 hours. Conditions are expected to fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions. Expected weather includes: Thunderstorm Rain. There is a 30% probability of MVFR conditions with Thunderstorm Rain between 20:00Z and 21:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Debrecen International Airport
Overview
Debrecen International Airport serves as a medium-sized airport located in eastern Hungary, situated near the city of Debrecen at 359 feet above mean sea level. Positioned at coordinates 47.488899, 21.615299, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region with two concrete runways capable of handling significant air traffic operations.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Debrecen demonstrate significant variability, with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) prevailing 57.8% of the time and Marginal VFR conditions occurring 18.1% of observation periods. Temperature ranges dramatically from -16°C to 30°C, with an average of 7°C, while wind patterns predominantly emerge from the northeast at an average speed of 6.5 knots and occasional maximum gusts to 25 knots.
Notable Features
The airport features two parallel concrete runways: 04R/22L measuring 8,196 feet and 05L/23R measuring 8,087 feet. Both runways demonstrate excellent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind conditions and minimal average crosswind interference (2.9-3.2 knots). Visibility consistently remains high, averaging 10 statute miles with minimal instances of reduced visibility.
Approach Considerations
Optimal visual flying conditions occur during autumn months (September, October, November), offering pilots predictable approach environments. The northeast prevailing winds suggest standard approach planning from those quadrants, with minimal expectation of significant wind-related challenges. Pilots can anticipate generally stable approach conditions with high probability of visual meteorological conditions.
