Weather Briefing

IFR

Jeonju (G 703) Air Base is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with overcast skies at 700 feet and 9 SM visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the south-southwest (210°) at 15 knots. Runway 25 is favored with a 11-knot headwind and 10-knot crosswind component. Student pilots and low-time aviators should exercise caution.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 9 SM. The ceiling is 700 feet AGL (overcast). Only precision approaches may be usable depending on minimums.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 25°C (77°F) with a dewpoint of 24°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 29 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: Light Showers Rain, Mist, Light Thunderstorm Rain, Mist. Temporary LIFR conditions are forecast with Light Thunderstorm Rain between 01:00Z and 06:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are required. Verify that destination and alternate approach minimums are above current and forecast conditions. 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.
