Weather Briefing

MVFR

A Coruña Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 1,800 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the north (360°) at 3 knots.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 1800 feet AGL (overcast), placing conditions in the MVFR category.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 19°C (66°F) with a dewpoint of 18°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. 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: Mist. There is a 40% probability of MVFR conditions between 21:00Z and 02:00Z. There is a 30% probability of IFR conditions with Mist between 02:00Z and 07:00Z. There is a 40% probability of VFR conditions between 08:00Z and 12:00Z.

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 A Coruña Airport

Overview

A Coruña Airport serves the northwestern Spanish city of A Coruña, located in Galicia. Situated in Culleredo at 326 feet above mean sea level, the airport operates a single runway 03/21 measuring 7,178 feet in length with an asphalt surface. The airport handles regional and domestic commercial aviation traffic in this coastal region of Spain.

Flying Conditions

Weather conditions at A Coruña Airport are predominantly visual flight rules (VFR), with 72.4% of observations supporting VFR operations. Seasonal temperatures range from -1°C to 27°C, with an average of 12.3°C, providing relatively moderate operating conditions. Wind patterns are consistently from the south (180°) at an average of 7.3 knots, with occasional gusts up to 36 knots and calm periods occurring 2.7% of the time.

Notable Features

The airport's coastal location in Galicia introduces potential maritime weather influences, including periodic fog events affecting 12.1% of observations. The surrounding terrain and proximity to the Atlantic Ocean can generate localized wind variations and potential turbulence. Visibility averages 10 statute miles, with consistently favorable wind conditions for runway 03/21.

Approach Considerations

Runway 03/21 experiences favorable wind alignment 100% of the time, with an average crosswind component of 3.9 knots. Pilots should anticipate the most stable VFR conditions during October, January, and September. The low percentage of instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions at 4.8% suggests generally reliable visual approach opportunities.
