Weather Briefing
MVFRYangzhou Taizhou Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 3,000 feet and 9 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east (100°) at 10 knots. Runway 17/35 is favored with a 3-knot headwind and 9-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 9 km. The ceiling is 1300 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 14°C (57°F) with a dewpoint of 11°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 24 hours. IFR conditions are expected to persist or develop. An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are recommended. Expected weather includes: Light Rain, Mist, Partial Fog, Mist.
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. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About Yangzhou Taizhou Airport
Overview
Yangzhou Taizhou Airport serves the Jiangsu province region in eastern China, situated near the cities of Yangzhou and Taizhou. As a medium-sized airport with a significant runway length of 10,499 feet, the facility supports regional and potentially some longer-haul commercial aviation operations. The airport's low elevation of 7 feet MSL indicates it is located in a flat coastal plain characteristic of the lower Yangtze River delta region.
Flying Conditions
The airport's low elevation and coastal location suggest potential for variable weather conditions, including potential fog and maritime air masses. Pilots should anticipate potential visibility challenges, particularly during transitional seasons when maritime and continental air masses interact. The runway's orientation of 17/35 provides some wind direction flexibility for operations.
Notable Features
Located at coordinates 32.563400, 119.719800, the airport is positioned in a relatively flat geographical area with minimal terrain complexity. The substantial runway length of 10,499 feet (concrete surface) indicates the facility can accommodate a wide range of aircraft types and provides significant operational flexibility. Its proximity to major population centers in the Yangtze River delta suggests it serves both commercial and potential regional transportation needs.
Approach Considerations
The runway's 17/35 orientation suggests wind-dependent approach strategies, with potential crosswind considerations during certain meteorological conditions. The concrete runway surface and extensive length provide good landing characteristics for most commercial aircraft. Pilots should conduct standard terrain and approach briefings, paying particular attention to local wind patterns and potential maritime weather influences.
