Weather Briefing

VFR

Kalibo International Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 24,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the northeast (50°) at 9 knots. Runway 05/23 is favored with a 9-knot headwind and 0-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 1,300 ft (CB), scattered at 24,000 ft. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 1,300 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 33°C (91°F) with a dewpoint of 26°C, indicating moderate moisture conditions. High temperatures at this elevation may result in significant density altitude effects. Pilots should calculate density altitude and adjust performance expectations accordingly.

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: Light Showers Rain. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Rain between 06:00Z and 12:00Z. Temporary VFR conditions are forecast between 18:00Z and 00:00Z. Temporary VFR conditions are forecast between 00:00Z and 06:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

Conditions are favorable for visual flight. 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 Kalibo International Airport

Overview

Kalibo International Airport serves as a critical aviation gateway in the Philippines, located in the province of Aklan on Panay Island. Situated at a low elevation of 14 ft MSL, the airport supports regional and international passenger traffic with its substantial 7,175 ft concrete runway. Its strategic location makes it an important transportation hub for the Western Visayas region.

Flying Conditions

Meteorological data indicates highly favorable visual flying conditions, with VFR predominating 89.3% of the time. Winds are consistently from the northeast at an average of 7.2 knots, with maximum gusts reaching 27 knots. Temperature stability is notable, with a modest range between 22°C and 33°C, averaging 27.8°C, which supports predictable aircraft performance.

Notable Features

The airport's single runway (05/23) offers excellent wind alignment, with prevailing winds favorable 100% of the time. Average crosswind components are minimal at 2.8 knots, providing comfortable landing and takeoff conditions. The low elevation and consistent weather patterns contribute to stable operational capabilities throughout the year.

Approach Considerations

January, October, and December represent the optimal months for visual flight operations, characterized by the most stable weather conditions. Pilots can expect high visibility averages around 10 statute miles with negligible instances of restricted visibility. The runway's orientation and consistent wind patterns generally support straightforward approaches from both directions.
