Weather Briefing
MVFRImphal Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 10,000 feet and 6 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the west (260°) at 6 knots. Runway 22 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 4-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 6 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 2,000 ft, scattered at 10,000 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 28°C (82°F) with a dewpoint of 19°C, indicating moderate moisture conditions.
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 Imphal Airport
Overview
Imphal Airport serves the capital city of Manipur in northeastern India, situated at an elevation of 2,540 feet MSL. The medium-sized airport supports regional and domestic aviation operations in a geographically challenging mountainous terrain. Its single runway (04/22) provides a substantial 9,009-foot asphalt surface for aircraft operations.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Imphal demonstrate significant variability, with MVFR conditions predominating at 56.8% of observations. Pilots can expect moderate meteorological challenges, with IFR conditions present 35.4% of the time. Temperature ranges from 6°C to 33°C, with an average of 21.6°C, and prevailing southerly winds averaging 3.2 knots.
Notable Features
The airport is located in a mountainous region with complex terrain, which can create unique aerodynamic challenges for pilots. Elevation at 2,540 feet MSL impacts aircraft performance, particularly during warmer conditions. The surrounding geography likely contributes to the variable weather patterns observed in the METAR data.
Approach Considerations
Runway 04/22 benefits from highly favorable wind conditions, with 100% wind alignment and minimal average crosswind of 1.9 knots. Visibility averages 10 statute miles, with minimal occurrences of restricted visibility. January, September, and October represent the most consistently favorable VFR months for flight operations.
