Weather Briefing

IFR

N 309 Helipad is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with clear skies and 1.9 km visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the south (180°) at 8 knots. Runway 15/33 is favored with a 7-knot headwind and 4-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is reduced to 1.9 km. IFR conditions prevail and an instrument clearance is required for operations in controlled airspace. Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 24°C (75°F) with a dewpoint of 23°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: Light Rain, Mist.

Pilot Recommendations

An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are required. Verify that destination and alternate approach minimums are above current and forecast conditions. 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.
