Weather Briefing
VFRSherbrooke Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with clear skies and 9 SM visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east-southeast (110°) at 5 knots. Runway 13/31 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 2-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 9 SM. Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 4°C (39°F) with a dewpoint of 0°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 3 hours. Conditions are expected to remain VFR throughout the forecast period. Expected weather includes: Light Showers Rain, FCST, FCST. Temporary VFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Rain, FCST, FCST between 00:00Z and 03:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight.

About Sherbrooke Airport
Overview
Sherbrooke Airport serves the Estrie region in southeastern Quebec, providing critical aviation infrastructure for the area. Located at an elevation of 792 ft MSL, the airport offers medium-sized airport capabilities with two substantial runways capable of handling diverse aircraft operations. Its strategic positioning makes it a key transportation node for regional and general aviation activities.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect variable weather conditions, with marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions predominating at 45% of observations. The airport experiences significant temperature range from -29°C to 28°C, requiring careful pre-flight planning and potential winter operations considerations. Wind patterns are predominantly westerly at an average of 7.3 knots, with maximum gusts reaching 31 knots and calm conditions occurring 9.2% of the time.
Notable Features
Both primary runways (13/31 and 14/32) are identically long at 6000 ft with asphalt surfaces, providing robust operational flexibility. The airport demonstrates excellent wind alignment, with both runways showing 100% favorable wind coverage and manageable average crosswind conditions (4.7-5.3 knots). Visibility averages 7.1 statute miles, with limited periods of reduced visibility (below 3SM occurring in 6.9% of observations).
Approach Considerations
September, October, and January represent the most consistently favorable VFR months for operations. Pilots should anticipate potential IFR conditions (10% of observations) and be prepared for occasional low IFR scenarios (4.1% of the time). The consistent westerly wind pattern suggests runway selections will typically favor 13/31 or 14/32 configurations, with minimal wind-related approach restrictions.
