Weather Briefing
MVFRLetterkenny Airfield is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 1,200 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility. Note: This observation is 4.3 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the west-southwest (240°) at 21 knots. Runway 26 is favored with a 20-knot headwind and 7-knot crosswind component. Student pilots and low-time aviators should exercise caution.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 1200 feet AGL (overcast), placing conditions in the MVFR category.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 17°C (63°F) with a dewpoint of 15°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 4 hours. IFR conditions are expected to persist or develop. An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are recommended. Expected weather includes: Light RADZ, Drizzle. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Light RADZ between 18:00Z and 22:00Z. There is a 30% probability of IFR conditions with Drizzle between 18:00Z and 22:00Z.
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. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.
