Weather Briefing
IFRMiddle Wallop Airfield is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with overcast skies at 500 feet and 6 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the northwest (310°) at 7 knots. Runway 27 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 4-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 6 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. The ceiling is 500 feet AGL (overcast). Only precision approaches may be usable depending on minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 16°C (61°F) with a dewpoint of 14°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
Pilot Recommendations
An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are required. Verify that destination and alternate approach minimums are above current and forecast conditions. 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 Middle Wallop Airfield
Middle Wallop Airfield (EGVP) is located in Middle Wallop, GB at an elevation of 297 feet MSL. The airport has 2 runways (09/27, 17/35), with the longest at 3,874 feet.
Weather Profile
With VFR conditions only 59% of the time based on 13,699 observations, EGVP requires careful weather planning. IFR conditions occur in 22.2% of reports, and instrument proficiency is advisable for regular operations here.
Wind Patterns & Runway Selection
Prevailing winds at EGVP come from the S (180°) with an average speed of 8.4 knots and recorded gusts up to 27 knots. Calm winds are rare (0.7%), so crosswind considerations are a regular factor. Runway 17/35 offers the lowest average crosswind component at 5.3 knots, making it the preferred choice in typical wind conditions.
Seasonal Considerations
The best months for VFR operations are July, May, April, when clear skies are most prevalent. Temperatures at the field range from -5°C (23°F) to 36°C (97°F), averaging 10.5°C (51°F). High temperatures can significantly impact aircraft performance through increased density altitude. Altimeter settings typically range from 9.75 to 10.35 inHg (330-351 hPa).
