Weather Briefing

MVFR

Bari Karol Wojtyła International Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with few clouds at 1,500 feet and 8 km visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the north-northwest (330°) at 7 knots. Runway 30 is favored with a 6-knot headwind and 4-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 8 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 1,500 ft.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 15°C (59°F) with a dewpoint of 12°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.

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. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Showers Rain between 10:00Z and 16:00Z.

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.

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

About Bari Karol Wojtyła International Airport

Overview

Bari Karol Wojtyła International Airport serves as a key aviation hub in southeastern Italy, located in the Puglia region. Situated at an elevation of 193 feet above mean sea level near the city of Bari, this large international airport provides critical air transportation infrastructure for the region.

Flying Conditions

Being positioned along the Adriatic coast, the airport experiences Mediterranean climate conditions with potential wind variations. The two-runway configuration (07/25 at 9,843 feet and 12/30 at 512 feet) offers flexibility for different wind conditions and traffic management.

Notable Features

The airport's primary runway 07/25 is a substantial 9,843-foot asphalt surface, capable of handling large commercial and international aircraft. Its geographic coordinates at 41.138901, 16.760599 position it in a relatively flat coastal area with minimal terrain complications for approach and departure procedures.

Approach Considerations

Pilots should be prepared for potential crosswind scenarios given the airport's coastal location and dual runway configuration. The substantial length of runway 07/25 provides significant operational flexibility for most aircraft types, while the shorter 12/30 runway can serve as an alternative or supplementary landing surface.
