Weather Briefing
VFRVilhelmina South Lapland Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 6,700 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the west (280°) at 5 knots. Runway 28 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 0-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 6700 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 10°C (50°F) with a dewpoint of 9°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
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.
