Weather Briefing
VFRCopenhagen Roskilde Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with few clouds at 1,500 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the southwest (230°) at 11 knots. Runway 21 is favored with a 10-knot headwind and 4-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 1,500 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 13°C (55°F) with a dewpoint of 10°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 9 hours. Conditions are expected to fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions. Expected weather includes: Showers Rain. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Showers Rain between 06:00Z and 15:00Z.
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.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Copenhagen Roskilde Airport
Overview
Copenhagen Roskilde Airport serves as a key regional airport located west of Copenhagen, Denmark. Positioned at 146 ft mean sea level, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the Zealand region. With two asphalted runways accommodating various aircraft types, EKRK supports general aviation, business, and training operations.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Roskilde demonstrate significant variability, with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) prevalent 50% of the time. Temperature ranges from -14°C to 24°C, creating diverse flying environments throughout the year. Wind patterns predominantly originate from the south at an average of 8.5 knots, with maximum gusts reaching 25 knots and only 1.6% calm conditions.
Notable Features
The airport features two parallel runways oriented at different angles, offering flexibility in wind conditions. Runway 03/21 measures 4,921 feet, while Runway 11/29 extends to 5,709 feet, providing substantial length for most general aviation and light commercial aircraft. Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, with modest average crosswind components of 5.8 and 5.1 knots respectively.
Approach Considerations
Pilots should note September through November represent the most consistent VFR months, with optimal flying conditions. Visibility averages 10 statute miles, with minimal instances of restricted visibility (less than 3 miles). Fog occurs in 4.5% of observations, suggesting occasional marginal conditions that require careful pre-flight planning and weather monitoring.
