Weather Briefing
MVFRStevanus Rumbewas Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 1,500 feet and 8 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east (100°) at 9 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 8 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: scattered at 1,500 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 25°C (77°F) with a dewpoint of 25°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 30 hours. Conditions are expected to fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions. Expected weather includes: Rain. There is a 30% probability of MVFR conditions with Rain between 18:00Z and 21:00Z.
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 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 Stevanus Rumbewas Airport
Overview
Stevanus Rumbewas Airport serves the town of Serui on the island of Yapen in Indonesia. Located at coordinates -1.828420, 136.062402, this medium-sized airport provides critical transportation infrastructure for the region. The airport sits at a low elevation of 20 feet mean sea level, typical of coastal Indonesian island airports.
Flying Conditions
As an airport in the Indonesian archipelago, Stevanus Rumbewas experiences tropical maritime weather conditions with high humidity and potential for rapidly changing conditions. Pilots should anticipate potential convective activity and localized weather variations common to island environments. The low elevation minimizes significant terrain-induced weather complexities.
Notable Features
The airport's location on Yapen Island presents unique geographic considerations for pilots, with surrounding maritime terrain and potential marine layer developments. Its position in eastern Indonesia means potential exposure to complex local wind patterns and occasional tropical weather systems. The medium airport classification suggests it can accommodate regional and smaller commercial aircraft.
Approach Considerations
While specific runway details are not provided, pilots should prepare for potential challenging approach conditions typical of island airports. Standard maritime approach procedures and careful attention to local wind conditions are recommended. Pilots should expect potential visibility limitations due to the tropical coastal environment and conduct thorough pre-flight weather assessments.
