Weather Briefing
LIFRLe Luc-Le Cannet Airfield is currently reporting low IFR (LIFR) conditions with overcast skies at 200 feet and 4.9 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are calm, presenting no crosswind concerns for any runway.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 4.9 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. The ceiling is very low at 200 feet AGL (overcast), well below circling minimums at most airports.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 12°C (54°F) with a dewpoint of 12°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
Pilot Recommendations
Current conditions require an instrument rating, IFR-equipped aircraft, and an IFR clearance. Check approach minimums carefully as conditions may be below CAT I ILS minimums. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours.

About Le Luc-Le Cannet Airfield
Overview
Le Luc-Le Cannet Airfield serves the Var region in southeastern France, situated at an elevation of 265 feet MSL near Le Cannet-des-Maures. This medium-sized airport provides critical infrastructure for general aviation and regional transportation in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur area. The airfield features two asphalted runways capable of accommodating various aircraft types.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect predominantly VFR conditions, with 81.7% of observations indicating favorable visual flight rules. Winds predominantly come from the west at an average of 8 knots, with occasional gusts up to 30 knots. Temperature variations are significant, ranging from -4°C to 33°C, with an average of 12.4°C, suggesting potential for dynamic weather conditions throughout the year.
Notable Features
The airfield's dual runways (09/27 and 13/31) offer flexible operational capabilities with lengths of 2,625 and 4,593 feet respectively. Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, with minimal average crosswind components of 2.5 and 4.9 knots. The geographical location suggests potential terrain influences typical of southeastern French coastal regions.
Approach Considerations
Seasonal visibility averages 10 statute miles, with minimal instances of reduced visibility. September, October, and January represent the most consistent VFR months. Pilots should be prepared for occasional fog (8.3% of observations) and verify current conditions before approach. The dual runway configuration provides wind-adaptive landing options for most general aviation aircraft.
