Weather Briefing
VFRDiagoras Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with few clouds at 1,800 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the southwest (220°) at 7 knots. Runway 24 is favored with a 7-knot headwind and 2-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 1,800 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 20°C (68°F) with a dewpoint of 16°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. Temporary VFR conditions are forecast between 09:00Z and 15:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight.

About Diagoras Airport
Overview
Diagoras Airport serves Rhodes, Greece, located on the island's northeastern coast. As a medium-sized airport with a significant elevation of 17 ft MSL, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the Dodecanese island region. The airport's single runway 06/24 offers substantial landing capacity at 10,846 feet with an asphalt surface.
Flying Conditions
Rhodes experiences highly consistent VFR conditions, with 94.8% of observations indicating favorable visual flight rules. Prevailing westerly winds at an average of 9.1 knots create stable approach conditions, with maximum recorded gusts of 28 knots. September through November represent the most consistently stable flying months, characterized by mild temperatures averaging 18.8°C.
Notable Features
The airport's geographical positioning on Rhodes presents minimal terrain challenges, situated near sea level with consistent visibility averaging 10 statute miles. Wind patterns demonstrate a remarkably stable western directional flow at 270 degrees, which significantly influences aircraft operations. Crosswind conditions remain moderate, with an average of 4.7 knots across the primary runway.
Approach Considerations
Runway 06/24 offers 100% favorable wind alignment, making it an operationally efficient approach corridor. Pilots can expect minimal wind-related complications, with calm conditions occurring in 3.8% of observations. Temperature variations between 6°C and 32°C suggest potential minor density altitude considerations during summer months.
