Weather Briefing
MVFRKurnool Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with few clouds at 1,800 feet and 5 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the southeast (130°) at 8 knots. Runway 10/28 is favored with a 7-knot headwind and 4-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 5 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 1,800 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 40°C (104°F) with a dewpoint of 11°C, indicating very dry 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 9 hours. Conditions are expected to remain MVFR throughout the forecast period. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast between 10:00Z and 16:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
VFR pilots should exercise caution. Consider filing IFR if instrument rated, or postponing the flight if conditions are expected to deteriorate further.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Kurnool Airport
Overview
Kurnool Airport serves the Orvakal region in Andhra Pradesh, India, positioned at 15.716288, 78.169230 with an elevation of 920 feet MSL. The medium-sized airport features a single concrete runway (10/28) measuring 6,562 feet, supporting regional aviation connectivity in the area.
Flying Conditions
Meteorological data indicates predominantly Marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions, with 85.5% of observations in this category and 14.5% IFR. The airport experiences consistent easterly winds averaging 7.2 knots, with maximum gusts up to 19 knots. Temperature ranges from 21°C to 33°C, with an average of 27.7°C, suggesting generally stable thermal conditions.
Notable Features
Kurnool Airport's runway 10/28 demonstrates excellent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind conditions. The local topography and elevation suggest a relatively straightforward terrain profile for approach and departure. Crosswinds are minimal, averaging just 3.5 knots across observations.
Approach Considerations
Pilots can expect optimal VFR conditions during January, September, and October, with consistently high visibility averaging 10 statute miles. The easterly wind pattern favors approaches and departures along runway 10/28, providing predictable wind conditions for most operations. Standard approach planning should account for the airport's moderate elevation and consistent wind characteristics.
