Weather Briefing

VFR

Ämari Air Base is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with clear skies and 10 miles or greater visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the west-southwest (250°) at 7 knots. Runway 24 is favored with a 7-knot headwind and 1-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 0°C (32°F) with a dewpoint of -1°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely. 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 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: Patches Fog. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 2 to 16 knots. There is a 40% probability of IFR conditions with Patches Fog between 00:00Z and 03:00Z. Temporary VFR conditions are forecast between 10:00Z and 22:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast between 14:00Z and 23:00Z.

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 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.
