Weather Briefing
MVFRTirupati Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with few clouds at 2,000 feet and 6 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the southwest (230°) at 7 knots. Runway 26 is favored with a 6-knot headwind and 4-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 6 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 2,000 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 38°C (100°F) with a dewpoint of 20°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 30 hours. The forecast shows a transition between VFR and IFR conditions. Pilots should monitor the forecast closely and have an alternate airport plan. Expected weather includes: Mist, Haze, Haze. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast between 10:00Z and 14:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Mist, Haze between 23:00Z and 03:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast between 10:00Z and 12:00Z.
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 forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About Tirupati Airport
Tirupati Airport (VOTP/TIR) is located in Tirupati, IN at an elevation of 350 feet MSL. The airport has 1 runway (08/26), with the longest at 7,500 feet.
Weather Profile
VOTP is weather-challenged, with VFR conditions just 0% of the time across 8,575 observations. IFR/LIFR conditions are present 37.6% of the time, making an instrument rating essential for reliable access.
Wind Patterns & Runway Selection
Prevailing winds at VOTP come from the NE (45°) with an average speed of 6.6 knots. Calm winds are rare (2.6%), so crosswind considerations are a regular factor. Runway 08/26 offers the lowest average crosswind component at 3.7 knots, making it the preferred choice in typical wind conditions.
Seasonal Considerations
The best months for VFR operations are January, February, March, when clear skies are most prevalent. Temperatures at the field range from 16°C (61°F) to 43°C (109°F), averaging 29.4°C (85°F). High temperatures can significantly impact aircraft performance through increased density altitude. Altimeter settings typically range from 10.01 to 10.2 inHg (339-345 hPa).
