Weather Briefing
MVFRRoyan-Médis Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 3,500 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the west (270°) at 3 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 2600 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 8°C (46°F) with a dewpoint of 7°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 Royan-Médis Airport
Overview
Royan-Médis Airport is a medium-sized airport located in southwestern France, situated near the coastal region of Charente-Maritime. Positioned at 45.628101, -0.972500 with an elevation of 72 feet above mean sea level, the airport serves the Royan and Médis area, providing essential aviation infrastructure for regional transportation and local flight operations.
Flying Conditions
The airport's relatively low elevation of 72 feet MSL suggests a generally mild terrain environment with potential maritime influence from its proximity to the Atlantic coast. Pilots should anticipate potential coastal weather variations, including potential sea breezes and localized wind patterns that could impact approach and departure conditions.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (10/28) with an asphaltic surface measuring 4,117 feet in length, suitable for medium-sized aircraft operations. Its geographic location near the western French coastline indicates potential terrain and wind considerations that pilots should assess during flight planning and navigation.
Approach Considerations
Runway 10/28's orientation suggests potential wind alignment from east-west directions. Pilots should carefully evaluate current meteorological conditions and perform standard terrain and approach assessments, paying particular attention to coastal wind dynamics that may influence landing and takeoff procedures.
