Weather Briefing
MVFRKramfors-Sollefteå Höga Kusten Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 1,400 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east-southeast (120°) at 7 knots. Runway 17/35 is favored with a 4-knot headwind and 5-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 1400 feet AGL (overcast), placing conditions in the MVFR category.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 7°C (45°F) with a dewpoint of 5°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
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.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Kramfors-Sollefteå Höga Kusten Airport
Overview
Kramfors-Sollefteå Höga Kusten Airport serves the northern Swedish region of Västernorrland, located in Nyland at an elevation of 34 feet MSL. This medium-sized airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the High Coast area, supporting regional transportation and connecting communities in this part of Sweden.
Flying Conditions
Weather at ESNK demonstrates significant variability, with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) conditions present 46.1% of the time and Marginal VFR conditions occurring 23.2% of observations. Pilots should anticipate challenging conditions, with IFR and Low IFR conditions combining for nearly 31% of recorded weather, and temperatures ranging from -28°C to 20°C with an average of 1.2°C.
Notable Features
The airport's single runway 17/35 is 6,565 feet long with an asphalt surface, oriented to maximize wind efficiency with 100% favorable wind coverage. Predominant winds come from the northwest (315°) at an average speed of 6.4 knots, with occasional gusts up to 25 knots and calm conditions occurring 9.5% of the time.
Approach Considerations
September through November offer the most consistent VFR flying conditions at this airport. The runway demonstrates low average crosswind characteristics at 2.6 knots, providing relatively straightforward approach and landing scenarios. Pilots should be prepared for potential fog conditions, which occur in approximately 9% of observations, and maintain awareness of the wide temperature range that can impact aircraft performance.
