Weather Briefing

VFR

Hiroshima Heliport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with few clouds at 1,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the northwest (310°) at 5 knots. Runway 04/22 is favored with a 0-knot headwind and 5-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 1,000 ft.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 14°C (57°F) with a dewpoint of 12°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.

Pilot Recommendations

Conditions are favorable for visual flight. 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.
