Weather Briefing
VFRHeringsdorf Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with overcast skies at 9,400 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the northeast (50°) at 10 knots. Runway 10/28 is favored with a 6-knot headwind and 8-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 7500 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 7°C (45°F) with a dewpoint of 4°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.
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.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Heringsdorf Airport
Overview
Heringsdorf Airport serves the northeastern coastal region of Germany, located in Zirchow near the Baltic Sea. As a medium-sized airport with two runways, it provides important aviation infrastructure for the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern region. The airport's elevation of 93 feet MSL and coastal positioning make it strategically important for regional and general aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Heringsdorf Airport are predominantly VFR, with 59.6% of observations showing favorable visual flight conditions. The prevailing winds are from the south at an average of 8.4 knots, with temperatures ranging from -10°C to 25°C and an average of 6°C. September, October, and November offer the most consistent VFR flying conditions, with excellent visibility averaging 10 statute miles.
Notable Features
Both runways (10/28 and 10R/28L) demonstrate consistent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind conditions. The primary runway at 7,562 feet is asphalted, while the secondary runway is 1,969 feet of grass surface. The airport's coastal location suggests potential for rapidly changing maritime weather patterns, particularly wind and visibility conditions.
Approach Considerations
Pilots can expect minimal crosswind challenges, with an average crosswind of just 4.8 knots on both runways. The statistical data shows extremely low occurrence of low-visibility conditions, with fog present in only 0.4% of observations and almost no instances of visibility below 3 statute miles. Both runways are equally suitable for approach, with consistent wind patterns supporting predictable landing conditions.
