Weather Briefing
MVFRSongkhla Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 10,000 feet and 8 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the northeast (40°) at 13 knots. Runway 13/31 is favored with a 0-knot headwind and 13-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 8 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. The ceiling is 10000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 1,800 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 26°C (79°F) with a dewpoint of 25°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 24 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. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 3 to 15 knots. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 06:00Z and 12:00Z.
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 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.

About Songkhla Airport
Overview
Songkhla Airport serves the southern Thai province of Songkhla, located near the city of Hat Yai. Situated at a low elevation of 12 feet MSL, this medium-sized airport provides regional aviation connectivity in a strategically important part of southern Thailand.
Flying Conditions
The airport's low elevation and coastal location suggest potential for variable wind and humidity conditions typical of southern Thailand's tropical climate. Pilots should anticipate potential seasonal weather variations that could impact approach and departure procedures, particularly during monsoon periods.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (13/31) measuring 4,954 feet long with an asphalt surface. Its geographic coordinates at 7.186560, 100.608002 place it in a relatively flat coastal region, which should provide relatively straightforward terrain navigation for incoming and outgoing aircraft.
Approach Considerations
Runway 13/31's orientation suggests potential crosswind considerations during approach and landing. Pilots should review current wind conditions and be prepared to adjust landing techniques accordingly, paying particular attention to wind direction and potential turbulence related to the coastal environment.
