Weather Briefing
VFRZhuhai Jinwan Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with few clouds at 1,200 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south-southwest (210°) at 10 knots. Runway 23 is favored with a 9-knot headwind and 3-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 1,200 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 27°C (81°F) with a dewpoint of 24°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 30 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: Showers Rain, Thunderstorm Rain. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Showers Rain between 21:00Z and 04:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 04:00Z and 10:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Showers Rain between 10:00Z and 16:00Z.
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.

About Zhuhai Jinwan Airport
Overview
Zhuhai Jinwan Airport serves the Zhuhai region in southern China, located near the special administrative region of Macau. As a medium-sized airport with an elevation of 23 feet mean sea level, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the Pearl River Delta area. The airport features a substantial concrete runway 05/23 measuring 13,123 feet in length, capable of accommodating a wide range of aircraft.
Flying Conditions
The airport's low elevation and coastal location suggest potential for marine layer formations and variable wind conditions. Pilots should anticipate potential visibility and wind shear challenges typical of subtropical maritime environments. The substantial runway length provides significant operational flexibility across diverse meteorological conditions.
Notable Features
Positioned at coordinates 22.006399, 113.375999, Zhuhai Jinwan Airport is situated in a complex geographical region with proximity to both coastal and urban terrain. The extensive 13,123-foot runway enables operations for larger commercial and potentially military aircraft. Its location in the Pearl River Delta suggests potential for complex local wind patterns and terrain-influenced meteorological interactions.
Approach Considerations
The runway orientation of 05/23 indicates potential crosswind considerations during approach and landing. Pilots should prepare for potential wind variability given the airport's coastal positioning. The concrete runway's substantial length provides significant margin for diverse approach and landing scenarios across different aircraft types and weight classifications.
