Weather Briefing
VFRTrois-Rivières Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 10,000 feet and 9 SM visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the north-northwest (330°) at 6 knots. Runway 05/23 is favored with a 1-knot headwind and 6-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 9 SM. The ceiling is 10000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 23°C (73°F) with a dewpoint of 21°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 9 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 Rain, Thunderstorm Rain, Mist, Light Showers Rain, FCST, FCST. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain, Mist between 17:00Z and 20:00Z. Temporary VFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Rain, FCST, FCST between 20:00Z and 02:00Z.
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.
