Weather Briefing

VFR

Nanning Wuxu Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 1,100 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the east-southeast (110°) at 4 knots.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: scattered at 1,100 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 24 hours. Conditions are expected to remain MVFR throughout the forecast period. Expected weather includes: Thunderstorm Rain. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 21:00Z and 00:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 06:00Z and 09:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours. 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 Nanning Wuxu Airport

Overview

Nanning Wuxu Airport serves the capital city of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in southern China. Located at 22.608544°N, 108.175335°E, this large airport operates at an elevation of 421 feet above mean sea level, providing critical aviation infrastructure for the Nanning metropolitan area.

Flying Conditions

The airport's elevation of 421 ft MSL suggests a relatively low-altitude environment with potential for variable atmospheric conditions typical of subtropical southern China. Pilots should anticipate potential seasonal humidity and temperature variations that could impact aircraft performance, particularly during summer months.

Notable Features

The airport features a substantial runway 05/23 measuring 10,499 feet in length, constructed of concrete (CON), which provides significant operational flexibility for various aircraft types. Its geographic positioning in the Jiangnan region indicates potential terrain considerations associated with the transitional landscape between coastal and inland zones.

Approach Considerations

Runway 05/23's extended length of 10,499 feet accommodates a wide range of aircraft operations with substantial margin for safe landings and takeoffs. Given the runway's orientation, pilots should anticipate potential wind variations that could influence approach and departure procedures, particularly during seasonal wind pattern shifts.
