Weather Briefing

IFR

Behala Airport is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with few clouds at 2,000 feet and 3.5 km visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the south-southeast (160°) at 8 knots. Runway 18/36 is favored with a 8-knot headwind and 3-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is reduced to 3.5 km. IFR conditions prevail and an instrument clearance is required for operations in controlled airspace. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 2,000 ft.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 28°C (82°F) with a dewpoint of 26°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. Conditions are expected to remain IFR throughout the forecast period. Expected weather includes: Haze.

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.
