Weather Briefing

LIFR

Kymi Airfield is currently reporting low IFR (LIFR) conditions with clear skies and 0.3 km visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the south (180°) at 5 knots. Runway 16/34 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 2-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is severely reduced to 0.3 km, likely due to fog, mist, or precipitation. Special VFR or an IFR clearance may be required. Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 12°C (54°F) with a dewpoint of 12°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 9 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: Fog, Mist, Light Showers Rain. Temporary LIFR conditions are forecast with Mist between 04:00Z and 06:00Z. There is a 40% probability of IFR conditions with Light Showers Rain between 07:00Z and 11:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

Current conditions require an instrument rating, IFR-equipped aircraft, and an IFR clearance. Check approach minimums carefully as conditions may be below CAT I ILS minimums. 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.
