Weather Briefing
VFROshima Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 10,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility. Note: This observation is 10.7 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east (80°) at 7 knots. Runway 03/21 is favored with a 4-knot headwind and 5-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 1,500 ft, scattered at 10,000 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 23°C (73°F) with a dewpoint of 21°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
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.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Oshima Airport
Overview
Oshima Airport serves Izu Oshima, a volcanic island located southeast of Tokyo in the Pacific Ocean. As a medium-sized airport with a single asphalt runway of 5,905 feet, it provides essential transportation infrastructure for the island's residents and visitors. The airport sits at 130 feet above mean sea level, offering strategic connectivity for the Izu Islands region.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Oshima Airport are predominantly Visual Flight Rules (VFR), with 87.6% of observations indicating favorable flying conditions. The prevailing northeasterly winds at an average of 11.2 knots create stable atmospheric conditions, with temperatures ranging from 2°C to 31°C and an average of 16.9°C. Winter months like January, November, and December consistently provide the best visual meteorological conditions for pilots.
Notable Features
The airport's location on a volcanic island introduces unique geographic considerations for pilots. Situated at coordinates 34.782001, 139.360001, the airport is surrounded by maritime terrain with potential wind variations driven by oceanic and island topography. The runway alignment (03/21) allows for consistent wind management, with 100% favorable wind conditions and minimal average crosswind of 2.8 knots.
Approach Considerations
Runway 03/21 provides predictable approach conditions with predominantly stable wind patterns. The northeast wind direction at 45 degrees supports consistent landing and takeoff operations, with maximum recorded wind speeds of 37 knots. Pilots can expect excellent visibility averaging 10 statute miles, with no significant fog or low visibility events historically recorded at this location.
