Weather Briefing
MVFRNaples Municipal Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 10,000 feet and 3 SM visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east (90°) at 9 knots with gusts to 22 knots. Runway 05/23 is favored with a 7-knot headwind and 6-knot crosswind component (gusting to 14 knots crosswind).
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 3 SM, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. The ceiling is 5500 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 26°C (79°F) with a dewpoint of 24°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 24 hours. Conditions are expected to fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions. Expected weather includes: Thunderstorm Rain. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 4 to 15 knots. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 20:00Z and 23:00Z.
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.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Naples Municipal Airport
Overview
Naples Municipal Airport serves the southwest Florida region as a medium-sized airport located in Naples, Florida. Positioned at 8 feet above mean sea level with coordinates 26.152599, -81.775299, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the metropolitan area and surrounding Collier County. Its three runways offer flexible operational capabilities for various aircraft types.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Naples Municipal Airport demonstrate predominantly favorable VFR flying environments, with 90.4% of observations reporting VFR conditions. Winds typically originate from the northeast at an average of 6.9 knots, with a maximum recorded speed of 23 knots. Temperature ranges from 6°C to 34°C, with an average of 22.9°C, creating generally stable atmospheric conditions for pilots.
Notable Features
The airport features three runways: two asphalt surfaces (05/23 at 6600ft and 14/32 at 5000ft) and one turf runway at 1850ft. Both primary runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, with modest average crosswind components of 3.3 knots for runway 05/23 and 5.2 knots for runway 14/32. Visibility averages 9.8 statute miles, with minimal instances of restricted visibility.
Approach Considerations
Pilots can expect optimal flying conditions during November, September, and January, which represent the airport's best VFR months. The prevailing northeast winds at 45 degrees provide consistent approach conditions. With only 2.2% of observations reporting LIFR conditions and minimal fog occurrences (1.5%), the airport generally offers reliable approach and landing opportunities.
