MVFRAnnette Island Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 3,900 feet and 10 SM visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the southeast (140°) at 10 knots with gusts to 18 knots. Runway 12/30 is favored with a 9-knot headwind and 3-knot crosswind component (gusting to 6 knots crosswind).
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 10 SM. The ceiling is 1900 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 12°C (54°F) with a dewpoint of 11°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. IFR conditions are expected to persist or develop. An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are recommended. Expected weather includes: Light Showers Rain, Light Rain, Light Rain, Mist. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast between 12:00Z and 16:00Z.
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.

About Annette Island Airport
Overview
Annette Island Airport serves Metlakatla, Alaska, located in the southeastern part of the state. Positioned at an elevation of 119 feet mean sea level, this medium-sized airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region's transportation needs.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences maritime climate conditions typical of southeastern Alaska, with potential for variable weather patterns. Its two runways - 02/20 (5,709 ft with gravel surface) and 12/30 (7,493 ft with asphalt surface) - offer flexibility for different wind and aircraft type conditions.
Notable Features
Located at coordinates 55.037663, -131.572609, Annette Island Airport is situated in a terrain-complex region characterized by mountainous coastal landscapes. The longer 12/30 runway, with its asphalt surface, provides a more substantial landing option for larger aircraft compared to the shorter gravel runway.
Approach Considerations
Pilots should be prepared for potential challenging approaches due to the airport's coastal Alaskan location. The two runways with different lengths and surfaces offer options for approach based on aircraft type, wind direction, and current meteorological conditions.
