Weather Briefing
VFRHarstad/Narvik Airport, Evenes is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 4,800 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south-southwest (210°) at 7 knots. Runway 17/35 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 4-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 4800 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 12°C (54°F) with a dewpoint of 9°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: Partial Fog. There is a 40% probability of LIFR conditions with Partial Fog between 22:00Z and 03:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. 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.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.
