Weather Briefing
IFRJorhat Airport is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with broken clouds at 1,000 feet and 4 km visibility. Note: This observation is 621.4 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south (170°) at 4 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is reduced to 4 km. IFR conditions prevail and an instrument clearance is required for operations in controlled airspace. The ceiling is 1000 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 20°C (68°F) with a dewpoint of 19°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 12 hours. Conditions are expected to fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast between 09:00Z and 12:00Z.
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.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Jorhat Airport
Overview
Jorhat Airport serves the Jorhat district in Assam, northeastern India, functioning as a medium-sized airport at 311 feet above mean sea level. The airport provides critical regional connectivity in a geographically challenging terrain near the Brahmaputra Valley, supporting both civilian and potential military aviation needs.
Flying Conditions
The airport's location in northeastern India suggests significant seasonal weather variations, with potential monsoon influences during summer months. Pilots should anticipate potential reduced visibility and precipitation periods, particularly between June and September, which could impact flight operations on the 9000-foot concrete runway.
Notable Features
Situated at coordinates 26.730456, 94.175416, Jorhat Airport is positioned in a region characterized by complex terrain with proximity to mountainous landscapes. The single runway (04/22) provides a substantial 9000-foot length, offering favorable operational capabilities for medium-sized aircraft across diverse meteorological conditions.
Approach Considerations
The runway orientation of 04/22 suggests potential wind alignment challenges depending on prevailing regional wind patterns. Pilots should carefully assess current meteorological data and utilize the full runway length, considering the elevation of 311 feet MSL and potential terrain-induced wind variations in the approach corridors.
