Weather Briefing

LIFR

Pembrey West Wales Airport is currently reporting low IFR (LIFR) conditions with overcast skies at 400 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the west (280°) at 9 knots. Runway 22 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 8-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is very low at 400 feet AGL (overcast), well below circling minimums at most airports.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 16°C (61°F) with a dewpoint of 16°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.

Forecast Outlook

The TAF forecast covers the next 23 hours. The forecast shows a transition between VFR and IFR conditions. Pilots should monitor the forecast closely and have an alternate airport plan. Expected weather includes: Drizzle, Mist. Temporary LIFR conditions are forecast with Drizzle between 01:00Z and 07:00Z. There is a 30% probability of LIFR conditions with Mist between 01:00Z and 07:00Z. There is a 30% probability of MVFR conditions between 11:00Z and 14:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

Current conditions require an instrument rating, IFR-equipped aircraft, and an IFR clearance. Check approach minimums carefully as conditions may be below CAT I ILS minimums. 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.
