Weather Briefing
MVFRPhitsanulok Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with clear skies and 6 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south (190°) at 5 knots. Runway 14/32 is favored with a 3-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. Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 37°C (99°F) with a dewpoint of 20°C, indicating very dry 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. Conditions are expected to remain MVFR throughout the forecast period.
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 Phitsanulok Airport
Overview
Phitsanulok Airport serves central Thailand as a medium-sized airport located at 154 feet mean sea level near the city of Phitsanulok. Positioned at coordinates 16.782900, 100.278999, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure in the region with a substantial 9,843-foot asphalt runway capable of handling diverse aircraft operations.
Flying Conditions
Weather observations indicate highly favorable visual flight conditions, with 86% of recorded periods supporting VFR operations. Wind patterns are predominantly westerly at 270 degrees, averaging 3.7 knots with occasional peaks to 11 knots. Temperature ranges from 12°C to 34°C, with an average of 26.7°C, presenting generally stable atmospheric conditions for pilots.
Notable Features
The airport's single runway (14/32) demonstrates exceptional wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind conditions and minimal average crosswind of just 1.9 knots. Located in central Thailand, the airport's moderate elevation and consistent weather patterns make it a reliable aviation facility with predictable operational characteristics.
Approach Considerations
Pilots can expect optimal visual meteorological conditions, particularly during November, December, and October when VFR conditions are most consistent. The runway's extensive 9,843-foot length provides substantial margin for approach and landing, with historically excellent visibility averaging 10 statute miles and minimal fog occurrence (1.5% of observations).
