Weather Briefing

VFR

Strezhevoy Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with few clouds at 3,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the southwest (230°) at 14 knots. Runway 15/33 is favored with a 2-knot headwind and 14-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 3,000 ft (CB). Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 3,000 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 11°C (52°F) with a dewpoint of 7°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. Conditions are expected to fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions. Expected weather includes: Light Rain, Light Showers Rain, Light Thunderstorm Rain. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Rain between 06:00Z and 15:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Light Thunderstorm Rain between 15:00Z and 00:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

Conditions are favorable for visual flight. 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 Strezhevoy Airport

Overview

Strezhevoy Airport serves the remote region of western Siberia, located in Russia's Tomsk Oblast. Situated at 60.709400°N, 77.660004°E, this medium-sized airport provides critical transportation infrastructure for a region known for its oil and gas operations. The airport's elevation of 164 feet MSL places it in a relatively flat geographical context.

Flying Conditions

The airport experiences typical Siberian continental climate conditions, characterized by significant temperature variations between summer and winter. Pilots should anticipate potential challenging meteorological conditions, particularly during winter months when low visibility and cold temperatures can impact flight operations. The single runway (15/33) measuring 6,562 feet in length is constructed of concrete, which supports year-round operations.

Notable Features

Strezhevoy Airport's runway orientation of 15/33 suggests alignment roughly northwest to southeast, which can influence wind patterns and approach strategies. The concrete runway indicates robust infrastructure capable of supporting medium-sized aircraft operations. The airport's geographical location in western Siberia implies potential terrain considerations related to the surrounding landscape.

Approach Considerations

Approaches to runway 15 or 33 will depend on prevailing wind conditions and air traffic control instructions. Pilots should be prepared for potential crosswind scenarios given the runway's orientation. The airport's moderate elevation and concrete surface provide relatively stable approach and landing conditions for appropriately equipped aircraft.
