Weather Briefing

MVFR

Borisovo Air Base is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 2,700 feet and 9 km visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the west (280°) at 12 knots with gusts to 17 knots. Runway 28 is favored with a 12-knot headwind and 0-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 9 km. The ceiling is 2700 feet AGL (overcast), placing conditions in the MVFR category. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 2,700 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 16°C (61°F) with a dewpoint of 14°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 9 hours. IFR conditions are expected to persist or develop. An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are recommended. Expected weather includes: Light Thunderstorm Rain. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Light Thunderstorm Rain between 09:00Z and 17:00Z.

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.

This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.
