Weather Briefing
MVFRFederico Fellini International Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 4,500 feet and 6 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east-northeast (70°) at 13 knots. Runway 13/31 is favored with a 7-knot headwind and 11-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 6 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. The ceiling is 4500 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 2,000 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 22°C (72°F) with a dewpoint of 20°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 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: Thunderstorm Rain. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 5 to 16 knots. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 06:00Z and 16:00Z.
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.

About Federico Fellini International Airport
Overview
Federico Fellini International Airport serves the coastal city of Rimini in northeastern Italy, providing critical aviation infrastructure for the Emilia-Romagna region. Located at 40 feet mean sea level, this medium-sized airport supports regional commercial and general aviation operations with its single runway 13/31, which spans 9,828 feet of asphalt surface.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect predominantly VFR conditions, with 64.5% of observations showing clear weather and only 11.9% reporting IFR conditions. Temperature variation ranges from -5°C to 28°C, with an average of 11°C, suggesting significant seasonal temperature fluctuations. Wind patterns are consistently westerly at an average of 5.8 knots, with maximum gusts reaching 20 knots.
Notable Features
The airport's coastal location near the Adriatic Sea influences its meteorological characteristics, with low elevation and proximity to maritime terrain. Visibility averages 10 statute miles, with minimal instances of restricted visibility, and only 3.7% of observations reporting fog. September through November represent the most consistently favorable VFR flying months.
Approach Considerations
Runway 13/31 demonstrates highly favorable wind alignment, with 100% wind compatibility and an average crosswind of just 3.3 knots. Pilots can anticipate predictable approach conditions, particularly during autumn months when weather patterns are most stable. The low elevation and consistent wind patterns contribute to generally straightforward landing and takeoff scenarios.
