Weather Briefing
MVFRJodhpur Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 25,000 feet and 6 km visibility. Note: This observation is 1152.2 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the southwest (220°) at 13 knots with gusts to 23 knots. Runway 23 is favored with a 13-knot headwind and 2-knot crosswind component (gusting to 4 knots crosswind).
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 6 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 10,000 ft, scattered at 25,000 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 35°C (95°F) with a dewpoint of 16°C, indicating very dry 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 12 hours. Conditions are expected to remain IFR throughout the forecast period. Expected weather includes: Dust.
Pilot Recommendations
VFR pilots should exercise caution. Consider filing IFR if instrument rated, or postponing the flight if conditions are expected to deteriorate further. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About Jodhpur Airport
Overview
Jodhpur Airport (VIJO) serves the city of Jodhpur in Rajasthan, India, functioning as a medium-sized airport at an elevation of 717 feet above mean sea level. The airport supports regional and military aviation operations, strategically positioned in the western region of India. Its single runway configuration provides essential air connectivity for the Jodhpur metropolitan area.
Flying Conditions
Located in a semi-arid region, Jodhpur experiences significant temperature variations and typically dry atmospheric conditions. Pilots should anticipate potential thermal turbulence and reduced performance during hot summer months when temperatures can significantly impact aircraft operations. The airport's elevation of 717 feet MSL provides a moderate altitude context for flight planning and performance calculations.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (05/23) measuring 9,005 feet in length, constructed with a PEM (Pressed Earth Macadam) surface. Its geographic coordinates at 26.251101, 73.048897 place the airport in a relatively flat terrain characteristic of the Rajasthan region. The runway orientation suggests potential crosswind considerations during approach and departure phases.
Approach Considerations
Runway 05/23's considerable length of 9,005 feet provides substantial landing and takeoff options for various aircraft types. Pilots should evaluate wind direction and runway alignment when planning approaches, considering potential crosswind components. The airport's moderate elevation and runway characteristics generally support standard approach and departure procedures.
