Weather Briefing

IFR

Jessore Airport is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with broken clouds at 10,000 feet and 3.5 km visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the east (80°) at 13 knots. Runway 16/34 is favored with a 2-knot headwind and 13-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. The ceiling is 10000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 3,000 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 31°C (88°F) with a dewpoint of 26°C, indicating moderate moisture conditions. High temperatures at this elevation may result in significant density altitude effects. Pilots should calculate density altitude and adjust performance expectations accordingly.

Forecast Outlook

The TAF forecast covers the next 30 hours. IFR conditions are expected to persist or develop. An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are recommended. Expected weather includes: Light Rain, Haze, Thunderstorm Rain. Temporary LIFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 06:00Z and 10:00Z. Temporary LIFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 06:00Z and 10:00Z.

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 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 Jessore Airport

Overview

Jessore Airport serves the southwestern region of Bangladesh, located in the Jashore District. As a medium-sized airport with an elevation of 20 feet mean sea level, it provides critical transportation infrastructure for the local area, supporting both civilian and potential regional aviation needs.

Flying Conditions

The airport's low elevation at 20 ft MSL indicates a relatively flat terrain environment with minimal altitude-related performance considerations. Given Bangladesh's subtropical monsoon climate, pilots should anticipate potential seasonal variations in visibility and wind conditions, particularly during the monsoon months between June and September.

Notable Features

The single runway (16/34) is 8000 feet long with an asphalt surface, providing sufficient length for most medium-sized aircraft operations. Its geographical coordinates (23.183800, 89.160797) place the airport in a relatively low-lying coastal plain region characteristic of southwestern Bangladesh.

Approach Considerations

Runway 16/34 suggests the primary approach axis runs northwest to southeast, which pilots should consider in relation to prevailing wind patterns. The 8000-foot asphalt runway provides substantial landing and takeoff capabilities for regional aircraft, with ample length to support safe operational margins.
