Weather Briefing

MVFR

Berlevåg Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 2,100 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the north-northwest (330°) at 23 knots. Runway 06/24 is favored with a 0-knot headwind and 23-knot crosswind component. Student pilots and low-time aviators should exercise caution.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 2100 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 1°C (34°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.

Forecast Outlook

The TAF forecast covers the next 8 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, Blowing Snow. Winds are forecast to reach up to 25 knots during the period. Temporary LIFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Snow, Blowing Snow between 12:00Z and 14:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast between 18:00Z and 20:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

VFR pilots should exercise caution. Consider filing IFR if instrument rated, or postponing the flight if conditions are expected to deteriorate further. 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 Berlevåg Airport

Overview

Berlevåg Airport serves the remote coastal community of Berlevåg in northern Norway, located at 70.871517°N, 29.034097°E. As a medium-sized airport at 42 feet mean sea level, it provides critical transportation infrastructure in the extreme northern region of Finnmark county. The airport primarily supports regional and local aviation needs in this challenging Arctic environment.

Flying Conditions

Weather observations indicate predominantly visual flight rules (VFR) conditions 71.8% of the time, with marginal VFR conditions present 20.4% of observations. Wind patterns are consistently westerly at 270°, averaging 14.6 knots with occasional strong gusts up to 53 knots. Temperature variations are significant, ranging from -16°C to 20°C, with an average temperature of 1.6°C, reflecting the extreme northern latitude.

Notable Features

The single asphalted runway (06/24) measures 3,372 feet in length, oriented to capitalize on the prevailing westerly winds. Wind analysis shows 100% favorable wind conditions for the runway, with an average crosswind component of 6.9 knots. The airport's geographic position in the far north means pilots should anticipate rapid weather changes typical of Arctic coastal environments.

Approach Considerations

Pilots should expect optimal VFR conditions during September, October, and November based on historical data. The runway's orientation and wind statistics suggest runway 24 will often be the preferred approach, with consistent westerly winds. Visibility averages 10 statute miles, with extremely rare occurrences of restricted visibility or fog (only 0.1% of observations).
