Weather Briefing
VFRSarakhs Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 4,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east (80°) at 6 knots. Runway 14/32 is favored with a 3-knot headwind and 5-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 1,000 ft, scattered at 4,000 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 11°C (52°F) with a dewpoint of 9°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 30 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. Winds are forecast to reach up to 24 knots during the period. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 8 to 24 knots. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 12:00Z and 18:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast between 08:00Z and 16:00Z.
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 Sarakhs Airport
Overview
Sarakhs Airport (OIMC) is a medium-sized airport located in the northeastern region of Iran, positioned near the border with Turkmenistan. The airport serves the Sarakhs area, providing critical aviation infrastructure in this strategically located region at an elevation of 945 feet above mean sea level.
Flying Conditions
The airport's elevation of 945 ft MSL suggests a moderate terrain environment that could experience variable weather conditions typical of the region's continental climate. Pilots should anticipate potential seasonal temperature variations that could impact aircraft performance, particularly during summer and winter months.
Notable Features
Sarakhs Airport features a single runway (14/32) with a substantial length of 13,076 feet, constructed with an asphalt surface. The runway's significant length provides flexibility for various aircraft types and potentially challenging approach conditions, with orientation that suggests potential wind alignment considerations.
Approach Considerations
The runway's 14/32 orientation indicates potential crosswind scenarios depending on prevailing wind directions. Pilots should carefully assess wind conditions and utilize the full runway length, taking advantage of the extensive 13,076-foot asphalt surface for safe approach and landing operations.
