Weather Briefing
MVFRKėdainiai Air Base is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 2,900 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the west-southwest (240°) at 8 knots. Runway 16/34 is favored with a 1-knot headwind and 8-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 2900 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 14°C (57°F) with a dewpoint of 11°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 24 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: Showers Rain, Rain, Mist. Winds are forecast to reach up to 20 knots during the period. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 3 to 20 knots. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Showers Rain between 12:00Z and 18:00Z. There is a 40% probability of VFR conditions between 12:00Z and 18:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Rain, Mist between 21:00Z and 04:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
VFR pilots should exercise caution. Consider filing IFR if instrument rated, or postponing the flight if conditions are expected to deteriorate further. 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.

About Kėdainiai Air Base
Kėdainiai Air Base is a military facility. Civilian access may be restricted or require Prior Permission (PPR). Pilots should consult the LT AIP for current access procedures and restrictions.
Overview
Kėdainiai Air Base is a medium-sized airport located in central Lithuania, situated at coordinates 55.311699, 23.956400. The base sits at an elevation of 171 feet above mean sea level, serving regional aviation requirements in the Kaunas County region. Its strategic location provides important infrastructure for military and potentially civilian aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
Lithuania's continental climate influences the airport's weather patterns, with significant seasonal variations that pilots must consider. The airport's elevation of 171 ft MSL suggests relatively stable atmospheric conditions with moderate terrain influences. Pilots should anticipate potential wind shifts and temperature-related performance considerations, particularly during transitional seasons.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (16/34) with an impressive length of 6,562 feet constructed with an asphalt surface. Its orientation allows for operations aligned with typical regional wind patterns. The substantial runway length provides flexibility for various aircraft types and operational requirements.
Approach Considerations
Runway 16/34's extended length of 6,562 feet offers pilots considerable landing and takeoff flexibility. The asphalt surface provides good friction characteristics under most weather conditions. Pilots should conduct standard terrain and wind assessments when planning approaches, utilizing the runway's favorable alignment and substantial operational parameters.
