Weather Briefing
MVFRSt Lucie County International Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 6,500 feet and 3 SM visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the north (360°) at 3 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 3 SM, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. The ceiling is 3300 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 23°C (73°F) with a dewpoint of 23°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 20 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. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Showers Rain between 10:00Z and 11:00Z.
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.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About St Lucie County International Airport
Overview
St Lucie County International Airport serves the Fort Pierce area in Florida, positioned at an elevation of 24 feet mean sea level. The airport offers two asphalt runways accommodating various general aviation and regional aircraft operations. Its strategic location on Florida's east coast provides an important aviation infrastructure point for the region.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect predominantly Visual Flight Rules (VFR) conditions, with 81.8% of observations supporting clear weather operations. Wind patterns are consistently easterly at an average of 6.5 knots, with calm conditions occurring 28.6% of the time. Temperature ranges from 1°C to 32°C, with November through January presenting the most stable VFR flying conditions.
Notable Features
The airport features two runways: 10R/28L at 6,492 feet and 14/32 at 4,756 feet, both constructed of asphalt. Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, with modest average crosswind components of 3.2 and 4.1 knots respectively. The relatively low elevation and coastal location suggest minimal terrain challenges for approaching aircraft.
Approach Considerations
Visibility averages 9.1 statute miles, with only 3.6% of observations showing conditions below 3 statute miles. Pilots should be prepared for occasional fog events, which occur in approximately 6% of observations. The consistent easterly winds make runway 10R/28L particularly favorable for most approach and departure scenarios.
