Weather Briefing

VFR

Malbork Królewo Air Base is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 500 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the northeast (40°) at 6 knots. Runway 07/25 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 3-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: scattered at 500 ft.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 11°C (52°F) with a dewpoint of 10°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 24 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: Showers Rain, Thunderstorm Rain, Mist. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 4 to 15 knots. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Showers Rain between 06:00Z and 20:00Z. There is a 30% probability of LIFR conditions with Thunderstorm Rain between 11:00Z and 18:00Z. There is a 40% probability of LIFR conditions with Mist between 22:00Z and 06:00Z.

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.

About Malbork Królewo Air Base

Malbork Królewo Air Base is a military facility. Civilian access may be restricted or require Prior Permission (PPR). Pilots should consult the PL AIP for current access procedures and restrictions.

Overview

Malbork Królewo Air Base (EPMB) is a medium airport situated in northern Poland near the town of Królewo. Located at coordinates 54.026598, 19.135718, the airport sits at a low elevation of 16 feet above mean sea level. The facility features a substantial concrete runway (07/25) measuring 8,202 feet in length, suitable for medium-sized aircraft operations.

Flying Conditions

The low-elevation coastal location suggests potential for variable maritime weather conditions typical of northern Poland. Pilots should anticipate potential wind shifts and visibility changes, particularly during seasonal transitions. The airport's proximity to the Baltic Sea region may introduce marine layer formations and occasional low-ceiling conditions.

Notable Features

The substantial 8,202-foot concrete runway provides significant operational flexibility for medium aircraft. Its orientation of 07/25 indicates a west-southwest to east-northeast alignment, which may interact with regional wind patterns. The airport's low elevation of 16 feet MSL suggests minimal terrain complexity in the immediate airport environment.

Approach Considerations

Runway 07/25's extensive length allows for comfortable approach and landing characteristics for various aircraft types. Pilots should be prepared to adapt to potential crosswind conditions given the runway's orientation. Standard instrument approach procedures will be influenced by the airport's low-elevation coastal geographical context.
