Weather Briefing
VFRCoral Harbour Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 5,000 feet and 15 SM visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the northwest (320°) at 9 knots. Runway 34 is favored with a 8-knot headwind and 3-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 15 SM. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: scattered at 5,000 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is -4°C (25°F) with a dewpoint of -10°C, indicating moderate moisture conditions. Temperatures are at or below freezing. Check for icing conditions and ensure aircraft anti-ice/de-ice systems are operational if required.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 12 hours. Conditions are expected to fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions. Expected weather includes: FCST. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with FCST between 13:00Z and 01:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About Coral Harbour Airport
Overview
Coral Harbour Airport serves the remote community of Coral Harbour in Nunavut, Canada, located in the northwestern part of Hudson Bay. As a medium-sized airport at 210 ft mean sea level, it provides critical transportation infrastructure for this isolated Arctic region, supporting regional and local aviation needs.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect significant weather variability, with visual flight rules (VFR) conditions predominating 64.5% of the time. Winter conditions are extreme, with average temperatures at -10.6°C and potential ranges from -40°C to 16°C. Visibility is generally good at 12.8 statute miles, though pilots should be prepared for periodic reduced visibility, with 3.7% of observations showing less than 3SM and 4.5% reporting fog.
Notable Features
The airport's single runway (16T/34T) is 5000 feet long with a gravel (GVL) surface, typical of remote northern Canadian airports. Prevailing winds are from the north at an average of 11.7 knots, with occasional strong gusts up to 38 knots. The geographic location suggests challenging Arctic flying conditions with potential for rapid weather changes.
Approach Considerations
Wind conditions strongly favor the 16T/34T runway, with a 100% favorable wind alignment and an average crosswind of only 5.6 knots. The best visual flying months are November, December, and September, offering more stable conditions. Pilots should be prepared for potential rapid weather deterioration and have alternate flight planning strategies for this remote location.
