Weather Briefing
VFRRimouski Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 12,000 feet and 30 SM visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east-northeast (70°) at 6 knots. Runway 07/25 is favored with a 6-knot headwind and 0-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 30 SM. The ceiling is 12000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is -1°C (30°F) with a dewpoint of -4°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods. Temperatures are at or below freezing. Check for icing conditions and ensure aircraft anti-ice/de-ice systems are operational if required.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 12 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 Snow, Light Snow, Light Snow, FCST. Temporary VFR conditions are forecast between 02:00Z and 06:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Snow between 06:00Z and 10:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Light Snow between 10:00Z and 12:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. 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 Rimouski Airport
Overview
Rimouski Airport serves the Quebec region of Canada, located in the eastern part of the province near the St. Lawrence River. As a medium-sized airport with an elevation of 82 feet MSL, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the Rimouski metropolitan area and surrounding regions.
Flying Conditions
The airport's maritime proximity suggests variable weather conditions typical of eastern Quebec, with potential rapid changes in visibility and wind patterns. At 48.477644 latitude and -68.496323 longitude, the airport experiences seasonal temperature variations that can significantly impact aircraft performance and operational considerations.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (07/25) measuring 4,600 feet long and constructed with an asphalt surface. Its moderate length accommodates most medium-sized aircraft and provides operational flexibility for regional and general aviation traffic in the Rimouski area.
Approach Considerations
Runway 07/25's orientation suggests potential crosswind scenarios, particularly given the regional geographic characteristics. Pilots should prepare for potential wind variability and ensure thorough preflight planning that accounts for the runway's asphalt surface and moderate length characteristics.
