Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 6200 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 12°C (54°F) with a dewpoint of 7°C, indicating moderate moisture conditions.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 8 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: Showers Rain, Thunderstorm Rain, Thunderstorm RAGS. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Showers Rain between 13:00Z and 21:00Z. There is a 40% probability of IFR conditions with Thunderstorm Rain between 13:00Z and 19:00Z. There is a 30% probability of VFR conditions with Thunderstorm RAGS between 13:00Z and 19:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About Brive Souillac airport
Overview
Brive Souillac airport (LFSL) serves the Brive region in southwestern France, located at an elevation of 1016 ft MSL. The medium-sized airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the surrounding area, supporting both general aviation and regional transportation needs.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at LFSL demonstrate significant variability, with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) prevailing 54.1% of the time. Pilots should anticipate potential instrument meteorological conditions, with IFR and LIFR conditions combining for 32.3% of observations. Seasonal temperature ranges from -11°C to 32°C, with an average of 9.3°C, suggesting potential temperature-related performance considerations.
Notable Features
The airport features a single asphalt runway (11/29) measuring 6890 feet in length. Prevailing winds from the southeast (135°) average 5.8 knots, with occasional gusts up to 19 knots and calm conditions occurring 14.1% of the time. Visibility typically remains excellent, with an average of 10 statute miles and minimal occurrences of restricted visibility.
Approach Considerations
Runway 11/29 offers favorable wind conditions, with a 100% compatible wind profile and an average crosswind of just 3.2 knots. October, January, and September consistently provide the most favorable VFR conditions for pilots. The modest crosswind component and extended runway length provide flexibility for most aircraft operations.
