Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: scattered at 4,300 ft.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 16°C (61°F) with a dewpoint of 15°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: Fog, Light Showers Rain. Temporary LIFR conditions are forecast with Fog between 21:00Z and 02:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Rain between 08:00Z and 12:00Z.

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.

About Syktyvkar Airport

Overview

Syktyvkar Airport serves the Komi Republic in northwestern Russia, located near the city of Syktyvkar at an elevation of 342 feet MSL. As a medium-sized airport, it provides critical transportation infrastructure for the region, connecting this northern area with other parts of Russia.

Flying Conditions

Pilots can expect variable flight conditions with significant seasonal temperature ranges from -31°C to 21°C. The airport experiences predominantly VFR conditions (46.8% of observations), with MVFR and IFR conditions also common, requiring pilots to be prepared for potential weather changes.

Notable Features

The airport features a single asphalt runway (18/36) measuring 8,203 feet in length, suitable for medium-sized aircraft operations. Its northern latitude and location in the Komi Republic means pilots should anticipate potential challenging winter weather conditions and limited daylight during winter months.

Approach Considerations

With minimal wind data provided, runway 18/36 appears to be the primary operational runway. Pilots should review current METAR and forecast information carefully, noting that visibility averages 10 statute miles and fog occurs approximately 3% of the time, particularly during transitional seasons.
