Weather Briefing

MVFR

Pskov Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 2,900 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the north-northwest (330°) at 6 knots. Runway 01/19 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 4-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 2900 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 2,900 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 10°C (50°F) with a dewpoint of 9°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 9 hours. IFR conditions are expected to persist or develop. An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are recommended. Expected weather includes: Light Showers Rain, Thunderstorm Rain. There is a 40% probability of LIFR conditions with Thunderstorm Rain between 12:00Z and 18:00Z.

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 Pskov Airport

Overview

Pskov Airport serves the Pskov region in northwestern Russia, located near the city of Pskov at an elevation of 154 feet MSL. The airport features two runways: a concrete runway 01/19 measuring 8,281 feet and a gravel runway 01R/19L at 5,578 feet, supporting medium-sized aviation operations in the region.

Flying Conditions

Weather conditions at Pskov Airport demonstrate significant variability, with visual flight rules (VFR) conditions present 37.7% of the time. The airport experiences a wide temperature range from -18°C to 24°C, with an average temperature of 2°C, creating challenging seasonal transitions for pilots. September, October, and January offer the most consistent visual flying conditions.

Notable Features

Positioned at coordinates 57.783901, 28.395599, Pskov Airport is situated in a region with potentially complex meteorological characteristics. The airport's observation data indicates a notable presence of instrument meteorological conditions, with MVFR, IFR, and LIFR conditions collectively accounting for 62.3% of recorded observations.

Approach Considerations

Pilots should anticipate potential low visibility scenarios, with fog present in 5.3% of observations and an average visibility of 10 statute miles. The dual runway configuration (concrete and gravel) provides operational flexibility, though specific wind data was not conclusive in determining standard runway preferential usage.
