Weather Briefing
MVFRTrat Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 10,000 feet and 7 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the southeast (130°) at 3 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 7 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 1,800 ft (CB), scattered at 10,000 ft. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 1,800 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 31°C (88°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: Thunderstorm Rain, Mist. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 00:00Z and 04:00Z.
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 Trat Airport
Overview
Trat Airport serves the eastern coastal region of Thailand, located in Laem Ngop district near the Gulf of Thailand. As a medium-sized airport at 105 feet elevation, it provides critical transportation infrastructure for the Trat province, supporting regional and tourist travel to the area's eastern seaboard.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences predominantly VFR conditions, with 56.8% of observations reporting visual flight rules and an additional 38.5% marginal VFR. Prevailing winds from the northeast (45°) average 7.3 knots, with occasional gusts up to 21 knots. Temperature variation is moderate, ranging from 17°C to 35°C with an average of 27.8°C.
Notable Features
Trat Airport's single runway (05/23) is 5,899 feet long with an asphalt surface, providing substantial operational flexibility. The coastal location suggests potential for marine layer development, though historical data indicates minimal fog occurrence (0.1% of observations) and consistently good visibility averaging 10 statute miles.
Approach Considerations
Runway 05/23 demonstrates exceptionally favorable wind alignment, with 100% wind compatibility and a minimal average crosswind of 2.7 knots. October, November, and September represent the most consistently favorable VFR months for operations, offering optimal flying conditions for pilots approaching the airport.
