Weather Briefing

MVFR

Ogoki Post Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 2,500 feet and 9 SM visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the north-northwest (330°) at 8 knots with gusts to 15 knots. Runway 27 is favored with a 4-knot headwind and 7-knot crosswind component (gusting to 13 knots crosswind).

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 9 SM. The ceiling is 2500 feet AGL (overcast), placing conditions in the MVFR category.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is -3°C (27°F) with a dewpoint of -7°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods. Temperatures are at or below freezing. Check for icing conditions and ensure aircraft anti-ice/de-ice systems are operational if required.

Pilot Recommendations

VFR pilots should exercise caution. Consider filing IFR if instrument rated, or postponing the flight if conditions are expected to deteriorate further.

This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Ogoki Post Airport

Ogoki Post Airport (CYKP/YOG) is located in Ogoki Post, CA at an elevation of 594 feet MSL. The airport has 1 runway (09/27), with the longest at 3,500 feet.

Weather Profile

CYKP is weather-challenged, with VFR conditions just 48.2% of the time across 10,442 observations. IFR/LIFR conditions are present 13% of the time, making an instrument rating essential for reliable access.

Wind Patterns & Runway Selection

Prevailing winds at CYKP come from the NW (315°) with an average speed of 8 knots. Calm winds are rare (1.3%), so crosswind considerations are a regular factor. Runway 09/27 offers the lowest average crosswind component at 5 knots, making it the preferred choice in typical wind conditions.

Seasonal Considerations

The best months for VFR operations are September, March, October, when clear skies are most prevalent. Temperatures at the field range from -33°C (-27°F) to 31°C (88°F), averaging -9.2°C (15°F). Cold weather operations require attention to aircraft preheating, de-icing, and cold-soaked fuel management. Altimeter settings typically range from 28.92 to 30.75 inHg (979-1041 hPa).
