Weather Briefing

MVFR

Brussels (Armstrong Field) Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 1,600 feet and 9 SM visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the north-northwest (330°) at 8 knots with gusts to 18 knots. Runway 35 is favored with a 8-knot headwind and 3-knot crosswind component (gusting to 6 knots crosswind).

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 9 SM. The ceiling is 1600 feet AGL (overcast), placing conditions in the MVFR category.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 7°C (45°F) with a dewpoint of 4°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 12 hours. Conditions are expected to fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions. Expected weather includes: FCST, FCST. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast between 16:00Z and 20:00Z.

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.
