Weather Briefing
MVFRGoulburn Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 3,400 feet and 9 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the northwest (320°) at 9 knots. Runway 26 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 8-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 9 km. The ceiling is 1100 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 13°C (55°F) with a dewpoint of 13°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: Light Showers Rain, Rain, Fog. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Rain between 06:00Z and 09:00Z. There is a 30% probability of LIFR conditions with Fog between 13:00Z and 23:00Z.
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 Goulburn Airport
Overview
Goulburn Airport (YGLB) is a medium-sized airport located in New South Wales, Australia, situated at coordinates -34.810299, 149.725998. The airport sits at an elevation of 2,141 feet above mean sea level, serving regional aviation needs in the Goulburn area. Its infrastructure includes two runways that support various general aviation activities.
Flying Conditions
The airport's elevation at 2,141 feet MSL suggests potential for variable wind and temperature conditions typical of inland Australian terrain. Pilots should anticipate potential thermal activity and temperature-related performance considerations given the significant elevation. The two runways (04/22 and 08/26) provide wind flexibility for different approach and departure scenarios.
Notable Features
Goulburn Airport features two runways with distinct characteristics: runway 04/22 is an asphalt surface measuring 4,209 feet long, while runway 08/26 is a gravel surface extending 2,218 feet. The variation in runway surfaces and lengths provides operational versatility for different aircraft types and landing requirements. The airport's geographical positioning suggests a potentially complex local terrain environment.
Approach Considerations
Runway 04/22's longer asphalt surface will likely be the primary runway for most operations, offering more favorable landing and takeoff characteristics. Pilots should carefully assess wind direction and surface conditions when selecting between the two runways. The airport's dual-runway configuration provides operational flexibility, allowing approaches from different directions based on prevailing wind conditions.
