Weather Briefing
VFRMohammed V International Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with clear skies.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the northeast (40°) at 6 knots. Runway 35 is favored with a 4-knot headwind and 5-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 21°C (70°F) with a dewpoint of 18°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 30 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. There is a 30% probability of LIFR conditions with Fog between 02:00Z and 06:00Z.
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 Mohammed V International Airport
Overview
Mohammed V International Airport serves as the primary international gateway for Casablanca, Morocco's largest city and economic center. Located at 33.367500, -7.589970 with an elevation of 656 feet MSL, this large airport provides critical international and regional connectivity for North Africa. The airport features two parallel runways, each 12,205 feet long with asphalt surfaces, capable of handling significant commercial and cargo traffic.
Flying Conditions
Casablanca's coastal location influences the airport's meteorological environment, with maritime air masses typically moderating temperature extremes. Pilots should anticipate potential maritime influence with potential visibility and wind variations, particularly during seasonal transitional periods. The airport's substantial runway length at 12,205 feet provides significant operational flexibility across various weather conditions.
Notable Features
The airport's twin parallel runways (17L/35R and 17R/35L) offer strategic operational redundancy and enhanced traffic management capabilities. Its location near the Atlantic coast presents potential wind gradient and sea breeze considerations during approach and departure phases. The 656 ft elevation provides a relatively stable atmospheric reference point for navigation and altitude calculations.
Approach Considerations
Parallel runways oriented 17/35 suggest prevailing wind patterns typically align with this runway heading. The substantial 12,205 ft runway length accommodates a wide range of aircraft types and provides generous landing and takeoff margins. Pilots should anticipate potential maritime wind influences and prepare for potential crosswind corrections during approach and landing sequences.
