Weather Briefing
MVFRKalaburagi Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 1,200 feet and 5 km visibility. Note: This observation is 22.7 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the west (280°) at 16 knots with gusts to 26 knots. Runway 27 is favored with a 16-knot headwind and 3-knot crosswind component (gusting to 5 knots crosswind). Student pilots and low-time aviators should exercise caution.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 5 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. The ceiling is 1200 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 26°C (79°F) with a dewpoint of 23°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.
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 Kalaburagi Airport
Kalaburagi Airport (VOGB/GBI) is located in Kalaburagi, IN at an elevation of 1,571 feet MSL. The airport has 1 runway (09/27), with the longest at 10,417 feet.
Weather Profile
VOGB is weather-challenged, with VFR conditions just 0.1% of the time across 3,138 observations. IFR/LIFR conditions are present 9.8% of the time, making an instrument rating essential for reliable access.
Wind Patterns & Runway Selection
Prevailing winds at VOGB come from the E (90°) with an average speed of 6.6 knots and recorded gusts up to 26 knots. Calm winds are rare (1.7%), so crosswind considerations are a regular factor. Runway 09/27 offers the lowest average crosswind component at 3.4 knots, making it the preferred choice in typical wind conditions.
Seasonal Considerations
The best months for VFR operations are March, January, February, when clear skies are most prevalent. Temperatures at the field range from 19°C (66°F) to 43°C (109°F), averaging 30.8°C (87°F). High temperatures can significantly impact aircraft performance through increased density altitude. Altimeter settings typically range from 29 to 31 inHg (982-1050 hPa).
