Weather Briefing
LIFRLeźnica Wielka Air Base is currently reporting low IFR (LIFR) conditions with broken clouds at 400 feet and 5 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the southwest (230°) at 6 knots. Runway 28 is favored with a 4-knot headwind and 5-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 5 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. The ceiling is very low at 400 feet AGL (broken), well below circling minimums at most airports.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 14°C (57°F) with a dewpoint of 13°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 23 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 RADZ, Mist, Light Rain, Showers Rain, Thunderstorm Rain. Winds are forecast to reach up to 20 knots during the period. Temporary LIFR conditions are forecast with Light RADZ, Mist between 07:00Z and 09:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Light Rain between 09:00Z and 14:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Showers Rain between 14:00Z and 19:00Z.
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.

About Leźnica Wielka Air Base
Leźnica Wielka Air Base is a military facility. Civilian access may be restricted or require Prior Permission (PPR). Pilots should consult the PL AIP for current access procedures and restrictions.
Overview
Leźnica Wielka Air Base is a medium-sized airport located in central Poland, situated at coordinates 52.004945, 19.143792. Positioned at an elevation of 404 feet above mean sea level, the airport serves regional aviation needs in the Łódź Voivodeship. Its substantial runway measuring 8,202 feet in length provides significant operational flexibility for various aircraft types.
Flying Conditions
Central Poland's continental climate creates variable flying conditions throughout the year, with potential significant seasonal temperature and wind variations. The airport's elevation at 404 feet MSL provides relatively stable atmospheric conditions compared to higher terrain regions. Pilots should anticipate potential crosswind challenges given the single runway orientation of 10/28.
Notable Features
The airport features an asphalt (ASP) runway aligned at 10/28, offering substantial length of 8,202 feet which accommodates medium to large aircraft operations. Its geographic position in central Poland suggests potential interactions with surrounding terrain and local meteorological patterns. The moderate elevation minimizes extreme atmospheric pressure variations that might impact aircraft performance.
Approach Considerations
Runway 10/28's extended length provides multiple approach options and enhanced operational safety margins. Pilots should carefully assess prevailing wind conditions, noting potential crosswind components given the single runway orientation. Standard instrument approach procedures will be applicable, with considerations for the airport's central Polish geographic context and 404-foot elevation.
