Weather Briefing

IFR

Pskov Airport is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with broken clouds at 2,300 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the south (190°) at 6 knots. Runway 19 is favored with a 6-knot headwind and 0-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 600 feet AGL (broken). Only precision approaches may be usable depending on minimums. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 2,300 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 19°C (66°F) with a dewpoint of 16°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.

Forecast Outlook

The TAF forecast covers the next 9 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. Temporary LIFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 09:00Z and 18:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are required. Verify that destination and alternate approach minimums are above current and forecast conditions. 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.

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

About Pskov Airport

Overview

Pskov Airport serves the Pskov region in northwestern Russia, located near the city of Pskov at an elevation of 154 feet MSL. The airport features two runways: a concrete runway 01/19 measuring 8,281 feet and a gravel runway 01R/19L at 5,578 feet, supporting medium-sized aviation operations in the region.

Flying Conditions

Weather conditions at Pskov Airport demonstrate significant variability, with visual flight rules (VFR) conditions present 37.7% of the time. The airport experiences a wide temperature range from -18°C to 24°C, with an average temperature of 2°C, creating challenging seasonal transitions for pilots. September, October, and January offer the most consistent visual flying conditions.

Notable Features

Positioned at coordinates 57.783901, 28.395599, Pskov Airport is situated in a region with potentially complex meteorological characteristics. The airport's observation data indicates a notable presence of instrument meteorological conditions, with MVFR, IFR, and LIFR conditions collectively accounting for 62.3% of recorded observations.

Approach Considerations

Pilots should anticipate potential low visibility scenarios, with fog present in 5.3% of observations and an average visibility of 10 statute miles. The dual runway configuration (concrete and gravel) provides operational flexibility, though specific wind data was not conclusive in determining standard runway preferential usage.
