Weather Briefing

VFR

Mollis Airfield is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 11,000 feet.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the west-northwest (290°) at 5 knots. Runway 01/19 is favored with a 1-knot headwind and 5-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

The ceiling is 11000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 5°C (41°F) with a dewpoint of 4°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 30 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. There is a 40% probability of MVFR conditions with Showers Rain between 17:00Z and 20:00Z. There is a 40% probability of MVFR conditions with Showers Rain between 08:00Z and 18:00Z. There is a 30% probability of IFR conditions with Thunderstorm Rain between 13:00Z and 16:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

Conditions are favorable for visual flight. 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.
