Weather Briefing
IFRBegishevo Airport is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 3,600 feet and 3 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the southwest (220°) at 8 knots. Runway 22 is favored with a 8-knot headwind and 0-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is reduced to 3 km. IFR conditions prevail and an instrument clearance is required for operations in controlled airspace. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 300 ft, scattered at 3,600 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 18°C (64°F) with a dewpoint of 18°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 23 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: Fog. Temporary LIFR conditions are forecast with Fog between 01:00Z and 03:00Z.
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.

About Begishevo Airport
Overview
Begishevo Airport serves the Nizhnekamsk region in Russia, situated at an elevation of 643 feet MSL. The airport supports medium-sized aircraft operations with two distinct runways, offering flexible approach and landing options for various aircraft types. Its strategic location provides critical aviation infrastructure for the surrounding urban and industrial area.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect highly variable weather conditions at Begishevo, with significant seasonal temperature range from -28°C to 26°C. Flight rules are predominantly VFR (41.1%), with substantial periods of MVFR (22.9%), IFR (21%), and occasional LIFR (15%) conditions. Visibility consistently remains strong, averaging 10 statute miles, with minimal instances of restricted visibility.
Notable Features
The airport features two runways with different surface compositions: runway 03/21 is asphalt (8,209 ft long) and runway 04/22 is grass (5,620 ft long). These multiple runway options provide operational flexibility for different aircraft types and wind conditions. The airport's geographical coordinates at 55.564701, 52.092499 place it in a region with potentially complex meteorological transitions.
Approach Considerations
September, October, and January represent the most favorable VFR months for operations at Begishevo Airport. While wind data in the provided statistics appears incomplete, pilots should prepare for potential variability in approach conditions. The dual runway configuration allows for adaptable landing strategies based on current meteorological conditions.
