MVFRRouen Vallée de Seine Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 8,400 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the north-northwest (330°) at 11 knots. Runway 04/22 is favored with a 4-knot headwind and 10-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 1400 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 1,400 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 12°C (54°F) with a dewpoint of 6°C, indicating moderate moisture conditions.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 9 hours. IFR conditions are expected to persist or develop. An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are recommended. Expected weather includes: Showers Rain, Thunderstorm RAGS. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Showers Rain between 12:00Z and 19:00Z. There is a 30% probability of LIFR conditions with Thunderstorm RAGS between 12:00Z and 17:00Z.
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 forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

Positioned at coordinates 49.384887, 1.179142, the airport features two runways catering to various aircraft operations, with a primary asphalt runway (04/22) measuring 5,577 feet and a secondary grass runway (05/23) of 2,952 feet.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at LFOP demonstrate significant variability, with VFR conditions predominating at 46% of observations, complemented by MVFR at 27.4%. The airport experiences a temperature range from -8°C to 30°C, with an average of 8.8°C. Wind patterns are predominantly southerly at 180°, with an average speed of 9.4 knots and occasional gusts up to 38 knots, presenting potential challenges for pilots during approach and landing.
Notable Features
Both runways offer 100% favorable wind alignment, with minimal average crosswind components of 5.5 and 5.8 knots for runways 04/22 and 05/23 respectively. The airport exhibits low fog frequency at 5.6% and maintains excellent average visibility of 10 statute miles, making it relatively accessible throughout the year.
Approach Considerations
Pilots should note September, October, and November as the most favorable VFR months for operations. The consistent wind patterns and low crosswind percentages provide predictable approach conditions. With two runways offering flexible orientation, pilots can select the most suitable runway based on current wind conditions and aircraft performance characteristics.
