Weather Briefing
VFRSihanoukville International Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 4,000 feet and 9 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east (80°) at 3 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 9 km. The ceiling is 4000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 24°C (75°F) with a dewpoint of 23°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 fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions. Expected weather includes: Showers Rain, Thunderstorm Rain. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Showers Rain between 00:00Z and 05:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 05:00Z and 10:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. 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.
