Visibility & Ceiling
Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 9°C (48°F) with a dewpoint of 6°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.
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: Showers Rain, Heavy Showers Rain, Heavy Thunderstorm Rain. There is a 40% probability of MVFR conditions with Showers Rain between 00:00Z and 10:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Showers Rain between 10:00Z and 20:00Z. There is a 40% probability of IFR conditions with Heavy Showers Rain, Heavy Thunderstorm Rain between 11:00Z and 19:00Z.
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.

About Nottingham City Airport
Overview
Nottingham City Airport serves as a medium-sized airport located in Nottinghamshire, Great Britain. Positioned at 52.919998° N, -1.079170° E, the airport sits at an elevation of 138 feet above mean sea level. The airport provides essential aviation infrastructure for the Nottingham metropolitan area and surrounding regions.
Flying Conditions
The airport's elevation of 138 feet MSL indicates a relatively low-altitude environment with moderate terrain characteristics. With two asphalt runways - 03/21 measuring 2,693 feet and 09/27 extending 3,445 feet - pilots can expect flexible operational capabilities. Local topography and proximity to urban areas may generate localized wind variations that require careful attention during approach and landing.
Notable Features
Nottingham City Airport features two runways aligned in different directions, providing operational flexibility for various wind conditions. The longer 09/27 runway at 3,445 feet offers more landing and takeoff options compared to the shorter 03/21 runway. The airport's medium classification suggests it supports a range of general aviation, commercial, and potentially limited regional operations.
Approach Considerations
Runway selection will likely depend on prevailing wind direction, with the 09/27 runway providing the longer operational surface. Pilots should carefully assess wind conditions and runway length when planning approaches, considering the airport's modest elevation and surrounding terrain. Standard instrument approach procedures and local traffic patterns will be critical for safe navigation.
