Weather Briefing

MVFR

Sari Dasht-e Naz International Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 2,700 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility. Note: This observation is 19.6 hours old and conditions may have changed.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the northwest (310°) at 6 knots. Runway 34 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 3-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 2700 feet AGL (overcast), placing conditions in the MVFR category.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 15°C (59°F) with a dewpoint of 12°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.

Forecast Outlook

The TAF forecast covers the next 9 hours. Conditions are expected to fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions.

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 Sari Dasht-e Naz International Airport

Overview

Sari Dasht-e Naz International Airport serves the city of Sari in Iran, located at an elevation of 35 feet MSL. The medium-sized airport is positioned at coordinates 36.644408, 53.188761, with a single runway 16/34 spanning 8,688 feet of asphalt surface. Its international classification suggests it supports regional and potentially some international air traffic in northern Iran.

Flying Conditions

The airport experiences predominantly VFR conditions, with 72.7% of observations reporting visual flight rules and an additional 18.5% marginal VFR. Wind patterns are consistently southerly at an average of 5.7 knots, with occasional gusts up to 29 knots. Temperature ranges from 0°C to 33°C, with an average of 14.8°C, indicating moderate climate conditions suitable for most aviation operations.

Notable Features

Runway 16/34 demonstrates excellent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind conditions and an average crosswind of only 4 knots. The airport's low elevation of 35 feet MSL suggests a relatively flat surrounding terrain. Seasonal variations indicate September through November as the most consistently favorable VFR months for flight operations.

Approach Considerations

Pilots can expect highly predictable approach conditions with exceptional wind consistency on runway 16/34. The statistically low occurrence of IFR (7.9%) and rare LIFR (0.9%) conditions suggest reliable visual approaches. High average visibility of 10 statute miles and minimal fog presence (0.5%) further support straightforward navigation and landing procedures.
