Clouds - Visual Profile
Weather Briefing
VFRLarnaca International Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with few clouds at 3,500 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the southwest (220°) at 27 knots with gusts to 39 knots. Runway 22 is favored with a 27-knot headwind and 0-knot crosswind component. These are strong winds that may exceed crosswind limits for light aircraft.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 3,500 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 22°C (72°F) with a dewpoint of 19°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. Conditions are expected to remain VFR throughout the forecast period. Winds are forecast to reach up to 20 knots during the period. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 9 to 20 knots. Temporary VFR conditions are forecast between 12:00Z and 16:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. Gusty conditions may exceed demonstrated crosswind components for many general aviation aircraft. Check your aircraft's limitations. 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 Larnaca International Airport
Overview
Larnaca International Airport (LCLK) is the primary international airport serving Cyprus, located on the southeastern coast of the island. Situated at a low elevation of 8 ft MSL, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for commercial and passenger traffic in the region. Its single runway 04/22 measures 9,823 feet in length, constructed with asphalt surface, supporting a wide range of aircraft operations.
Flying Conditions
Cyprus experiences a Mediterranean climate characterized by hot, dry summers and mild winters, which generally provides stable flying conditions. The airport's low elevation and coastal location can create potential wind and visibility variations, particularly during seasonal transitional periods. Pilots should anticipate potential thermal effects and sea breeze patterns that may influence approach and departure conditions.
Notable Features
The airport is positioned near the coastline, with relatively flat surrounding terrain that provides straightforward visual and instrument approaches. Its geographical coordinates (34.875099, 33.624901) place it in a strategically important location for regional aviation connectivity. The long runway length of 9,823 feet accommodates a diverse range of aircraft types, from regional commuters to wide-body international carriers.
Approach Considerations
Runway 04/22's substantial length and asphalt surface offer flexible approach options for various aircraft categories. Prevailing winds and local topography will typically influence runway selection, with pilots recommended to obtain current meteorological information before arrival. The airport's low elevation and coastal positioning suggest potential wind shear or crosswind considerations during approach and landing phases.
