Weather Briefing

MVFR

Chambley airfield is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 6,800 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the west-northwest (290°) at 4 knots.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 1100 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category. Caution: towering cumulus clouds reported at 2,500 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 5°C (41°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.

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: Light Showers Rain, Patches Fog, Fog, Showers Rain, Thunderstorm Rain. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 3 to 15 knots. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Rain between 00:00Z and 20:00Z. There is a 40% probability of LIFR conditions with Patches Fog between 02:00Z and 07:00Z. There is a 30% probability of LIFR conditions with Fog between 03:00Z and 07:00Z.

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. 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.
