Weather Briefing
MVFRCalicut International Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with few clouds at 1,200 feet and 6 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the north (350°) at 2 knots.
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 1,200 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 27°C (81°F) with a dewpoint of 23°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 30 hours. IFR conditions are expected to persist or develop. An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are recommended. Expected weather includes: Mist, Rain, Mist. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 3 to 15 knots. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Mist between 22:00Z and 02:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Rain, Mist between 10:00Z and 14:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Mist between 20:00Z and 00:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
VFR pilots should exercise caution. Consider filing IFR if instrument rated, or postponing the flight if conditions are expected to deteriorate further. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.
