Weather Briefing

VFR

Roxas Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 24,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the northeast (40°) at 10 knots. Runway 32 is favored with a 2-knot headwind and 10-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 1,300 ft (TCU), scattered at 24,000 ft. Caution: towering cumulus clouds reported at 1,300 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 33°C (91°F) with a dewpoint of 25°C, indicating moderate moisture conditions. High temperatures at this elevation may result in significant density altitude effects. Pilots should calculate density altitude and adjust performance expectations accordingly.

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: Light Showers Rain. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Rain between 04:00Z and 10:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

Conditions are favorable for visual flight. 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 Roxas Airport

Overview

Roxas Airport serves Roxas City in the Philippines, positioned as a medium-sized airport at 10 feet above mean sea level. Located at coordinates 11.597700, 122.751999, the airport provides critical transportation infrastructure for the Capiz province and surrounding regions. Its single runway (14/32) extends 6,201 feet with a concrete surface, supporting regional and domestic aviation operations.

Flying Conditions

The airport's low elevation of 10 feet MSL indicates a coastal environment typical of Philippine island geography. Pilots can expect maritime atmospheric conditions with potential humidity and variable wind patterns. The single runway's orientation suggests potential crosswind challenges during certain seasonal wind regimes.

Notable Features

Roxas Airport's runway 14/32 configuration provides operational flexibility for aircraft approach and departure directions. The concrete runway surface supports medium-weight aircraft operations with a substantial 6,201-foot length. Its low-elevation coastal location may present unique meteorological considerations for pilots, including potential marine layer formations.

Approach Considerations

Runway 14/32's length and concrete surface accommodate a range of aircraft types and approach scenarios. Pilots should anticipate potential wind variations given the airport's coastal positioning. Standard instrument approach procedures would be recommended for navigating to this 10-foot elevation airport, with careful attention to local maritime meteorological conditions.
