Weather Briefing

LIFR

La Calera Airport is currently reporting low IFR (LIFR) conditions with overcast skies at 2,300 feet and 1 km visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the northwest (310°) at 3 knots.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is severely reduced to 1 km, likely due to fog, mist, or precipitation. Special VFR or an IFR clearance may be required. The ceiling is very low at 300 feet AGL (broken), well below circling minimums at most airports.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 11°C (52°F) with a dewpoint of 9°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. Expected weather includes: RADZ, Mist, RADZ. Temporary LIFR conditions are forecast with RADZ, Mist between 00:00Z and 05:00Z. Temporary VFR conditions are forecast between 13:00Z and 21:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

Current conditions require an instrument rating, IFR-equipped aircraft, and an IFR clearance. Check approach minimums carefully as conditions may be below CAT I ILS minimums. 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.
