Weather Briefing

MVFR

Lamerd Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 20,000 feet and 5 km visibility. Note: This observation is 3.4 hours old and conditions may have changed.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the west-northwest (300°) at 13 knots. Runway 29 is favored with a 13-knot headwind and 2-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 5 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. The ceiling is 20000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums. Caution: towering cumulus clouds reported at 3,000 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 42°C (108°F) with a dewpoint of 16°C, indicating very dry conditions. High temperatures at this elevation may result in significant density altitude effects. Pilots should calculate density altitude and adjust performance expectations accordingly.

Pilot Recommendations

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

This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Lamerd Airport

Overview

Lamerd Airport serves the Lamerd region in Iran, situated at an elevation of 1337 ft MSL. As a medium airport with a single runway (11/29) measuring 10,020 ft in asphalted surface, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for regional transportation and potential military/commercial operations in southern Iran.

Flying Conditions

Weather conditions at Lamerd Airport are predominantly favorable for visual flight rules (VFR), with 68.1% of observations supporting clear conditions. The airport experiences consistent western winds averaging 4.8 knots, with maximum recorded gusts of 23 knots. Temperature variations are significant, ranging from 2°C to 44°C, with an average of 22.5°C.

Notable Features

The airport's geographical coordinates (27.372700, 53.188801) place it in a region with relatively stable atmospheric conditions. Notably, wind patterns are remarkably consistent, with westerly winds (270°) dominating and calm conditions occurring 23.2% of the time. October, November, and January represent the most consistently favorable VFR months for operations.

Approach Considerations

Runway 11/29 offers excellent wind alignment, with prevailing winds favorable 100% of the time and minimal average crosswind of 2 knots. Pilots can expect excellent visibility, with an average of 10 statute miles and minimal occurrences of reduced visibility (fog present in only 0.8% of observations). The long 10,020 ft runway provides substantial landing and takeoff flexibility.
