Weather Briefing

LIFR

Taganrog Yuzhny Airport is currently reporting low IFR (LIFR) conditions with broken clouds at 100 feet and 9 km visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the north-northeast (20°) at 4 knots.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 9 km. The ceiling is very low at 100 feet AGL (broken), well below circling minimums at most airports. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 4,500 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 15°C (59°F) with a dewpoint of 15°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 24 hours. Conditions are expected to remain MVFR throughout the forecast period. Expected weather includes: Light Showers Rain, Light Thunderstorm Rain. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Light Thunderstorm Rain between 06:00Z and 06:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

Current conditions require an instrument rating, IFR-equipped aircraft, and an IFR clearance. Check approach minimums carefully as conditions may be below CAT I ILS minimums. 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 Taganrog Yuzhny Airport

Overview

Taganrog Yuzhny Airport serves the city of Taganrog in southern Russia, located near the Sea of Azov. Positioned at 47.198333, 38.849167, this medium-sized airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the Rostov Oblast region. The airport's elevation of 117 feet above mean sea level indicates a relatively flat terrain surrounding the facility.

Flying Conditions

The region experiences variable weather conditions typical of southern Russia's continental climate, with potential significant seasonal temperature variations. Pilots should anticipate potential wind shifts given the airport's proximity to coastal geography. The single concrete runway (10/28) measuring 9,052 feet provides substantial landing and takeoff capabilities across different meteorological scenarios.

Notable Features

Taganrog Yuzhny's runway orientation (10/28) suggests the primary approach paths align approximately east-west. The airport's moderate elevation and concrete runway construction indicate it can support medium-weight aircraft operations. Its location near the Sea of Azov may introduce maritime atmospheric influences that pilots should consider during flight planning.

Approach Considerations

Runway 10/28's substantial 9,052-foot length allows flexibility for various aircraft types and approach conditions. The airport's relatively low elevation minimizes potential altitude-related performance complications during landing and takeoff. Pilots should perform standard terrain and wind assessments when planning approaches to this southeastern Russian airport.
