Weather Briefing

LIFR

Allambie Airport is currently reporting low IFR (LIFR) conditions with overcast skies at 1,000 feet and 5 km visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the southeast (140°) at 11 knots. Runway 18/36 is favored with a 8-knot headwind and 7-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 5 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. The ceiling is very low at 400 feet AGL (broken), well below circling minimums at most airports.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 10°C (50°F) with a dewpoint of 10°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 24 hours. IFR conditions are expected to persist or develop. An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are recommended. Expected weather includes: Drizzle, Light Rain, Fog. Temporary LIFR conditions are forecast with Drizzle between 06:00Z and 14:00Z. Temporary LIFR conditions are forecast between 14:00Z and 01:00Z. There is a 30% probability of LIFR conditions with Fog between 20:00Z and 00:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

Current conditions require an instrument rating, IFR-equipped aircraft, and an IFR clearance. Check approach minimums carefully as conditions may be below CAT I ILS minimums. 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.
