Weather Briefing

VFR

Breitscheid Airfield is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 2,800 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the northwest (320°) at 8 knots. Runway 25 is favored with a 3-knot headwind and 8-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 2,200 ft, scattered at 2,800 ft (TCU). Caution: towering cumulus clouds reported at 2,800 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.

Temperature & Moisture
