Weather Briefing

VFR

Matane Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 12,000 feet and 30 SM visibility. Note: This observation is 1 hours old and conditions may have changed.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the east-northeast (70°) at 6 knots. Runway 09/27 is favored with a 6-knot headwind and 2-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 30 SM. The ceiling is 12000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is -1°C (30°F) with a dewpoint of -4°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods. Temperatures are at or below freezing. Check for icing conditions and ensure aircraft anti-ice/de-ice systems are operational if required.

Forecast Outlook

The TAF forecast covers the next 12 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: Light Showers Snow, Light Snow, Light Snow, FCST. Temporary VFR conditions are forecast between 02:00Z and 06:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Snow between 06:00Z and 10:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Light Snow between 10:00Z and 12:00Z.

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 Matane Airport

Overview

Matane Airport serves the Gaspésie–Îles-de-la-Madeleine region in Quebec, Canada, located along the Saint Lawrence River's south shore. As a medium-sized airport with an elevation of 102 feet MSL, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for regional transportation and potential emergency services in this coastal area.

Flying Conditions

The airport's location near the Gulf of St. Lawrence suggests potential maritime weather influences, including variable wind conditions and potential low visibility scenarios. Pilots should anticipate seasonal temperature variations typical of the Quebec maritime climate, which can significantly impact aircraft performance and approach conditions.

Notable Features

The single runway (09/27) measures 5,500 feet in length and is constructed with an asphalt surface, suitable for medium-sized aircraft operations. Its geographic coordinates at 48.856899, -67.453300 place the airport in a coastal terrain environment with potential terrain and wind considerations during approach and departure.

Approach Considerations

Runway 09/27's orientation suggests potential crosswind challenges, particularly given the coastal location. Pilots should carefully assess wind direction and velocity during preflight planning, recognizing that the runway's length provides reasonable operational flexibility for most medium-sized aircraft.
