Weather Briefing

VFR

Paros National Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with clear skies.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the north (10°) at 13 knots. Runway 35 is favored with a 12-knot headwind and 4-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 13°C (55°F) with a dewpoint of 10°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.

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.

This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.
