Weather Briefing

VFR

La Gruyère Airfield is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 5,600 feet.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the west-southwest (250°) at 7 knots. Runway 17/35 is favored with a 1-knot headwind and 7-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

The ceiling is 5600 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 15°C (59°F) with a dewpoint of 13°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 30 hours. Conditions are expected to remain VFR throughout the forecast period.

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.
