Weather Briefing
LIFRKonotori Tajima Airport is currently reporting low IFR (LIFR) conditions with broken clouds at 500 feet and 0.8 km visibility. Note: This observation is 1.1 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are calm, presenting no crosswind concerns for any runway.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is severely reduced to 0.8 km, likely due to fog, mist, or precipitation. Special VFR or an IFR clearance may be required. The ceiling is 500 feet AGL (broken). Only precision approaches may be usable depending on minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 10°C (50°F) with a dewpoint of 10°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
Pilot Recommendations
Current conditions require an instrument rating, IFR-equipped aircraft, and an IFR clearance. Check approach minimums carefully as conditions may be below CAT I ILS minimums. 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.

About Konotori Tajima Airport
Overview
Konotori Tajima Airport serves the Toyooka region in Japan, functioning as a medium-sized airport at an elevation of 584 feet MSL. Located at coordinates 35.512798, 134.787003, the airport provides essential regional aviation infrastructure for local transportation and connectivity. Its single runway 01/19 spans 3,937 feet and is constructed with asphalt surface.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Konotori Tajima Airport demonstrate predominantly favorable VFR flying conditions, with 73.1% of observations indicating visual flight rules. Seasonal temperature ranges from -3°C to 31°C, with an average of 12.4°C, presenting moderate climate variations. Wind patterns predominantly originate from the south (180°) at an average speed of 5.9 knots, with occasional gusts up to 19 knots and rare calm periods (1.1% of observations).
Notable Features
The airport experiences minimal low visibility challenges, with only 8% IFR and 8.7% LIFR conditions reported. Fog occurs in 18.4% of observations, which pilots should consider during flight planning. The consistent average visibility of 10 statute miles suggests generally clear atmospheric conditions throughout the year.
Approach Considerations
Runway 01/19 demonstrates highly favorable wind alignment, with 100% wind compatibility and minimal average crosswind of 2 knots. November, September, and December represent the most consistently favorable VFR months for operations. Pilots should anticipate stable approach conditions with predictable wind patterns and good visibility.
