Wind Analysis

Winds are from the east (100°) at 6 knots. Runway 06/24 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 4-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 2,900 ft.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 15°C (59°F) with a dewpoint of 9°C, indicating moderate moisture conditions.

Forecast Outlook

The TAF forecast covers the next 24 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: Rain. Temporary VFR conditions are forecast between 09:00Z and 15:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Rain between 18:00Z and 04:00Z. There is a 40% probability of IFR conditions with Rain between 20:00Z and 04:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

Conditions are favorable for visual flight. 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 Ämari Air Base

Ämari Air Base is a military facility. Civilian access may be restricted or require Prior Permission (PPR). Pilots should consult the EE AIP for current access procedures and restrictions.

Overview

Ämari Air Base is a medium-sized airport located near Keila, Estonia, with an elevation of 65 feet MSL. Positioned at coordinates 59.259599, 24.204799, the base serves as an important aviation facility in the Baltic region. Its single runway 06/24 extends 6,562 feet and is constructed of concrete.

Flying Conditions

Weather conditions at Ämari demonstrate significant variability, with VFR conditions occurring 32.2% of the time and instrument flight rules prevailing 45.7% of observations. Pilots should anticipate prevailing southerly winds averaging 8 knots, with potential gusts up to 22 knots. Temperature ranges from -23°C to 24°C, with an average of 3.7°C, suggesting potential for significant thermal variations.

Notable Features

The airport's geographic location experiences diverse meteorological conditions, with fog present in 2.6% of observations. Seasonal variations are notable, with September, October, and November offering the most favorable VFR conditions. The runway demonstrates consistent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind conditions for the 06/24 orientation.

Approach Considerations

Runway 06/24 presents an average crosswind of 5.2 knots, which is generally manageable for most aircraft. Pilots should prepare for potential instrument meteorological conditions, given that IFR and LIFR conditions combine to represent 45.7% of observed weather patterns. The consistent southerly wind and good visibility (averaging 10 statute miles) typically provide stable approach conditions.
