Weather Briefing
VFROrsk Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with clear skies.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the west-northwest (290°) at 6 knots. Runway 25 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 4-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 17°C (63°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 9 hours. Conditions are expected to remain MVFR throughout the forecast period. Expected weather includes: Light Showers Rain. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Rain between 00:00Z and 09:00Z.
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 Orsk Airport
Overview
Orsk Airport serves the urban area of Orsk in Russia, located at coordinates 51.072498, 58.595600 with an elevation of 909 feet MSL. As a medium-sized airport, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region, supporting both commercial and potentially regional transportation needs.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Orsk Airport exhibit significant variability, with visual flight rules (VFR) predominating at 53.8% of observations. Temperature ranges dramatically from -31°C to 30°C, with an average of -1.9°C, indicating challenging winter operations. Pilots can expect relatively good visibility averaging 10 statute miles, with fog present in approximately 10% of observations.
Notable Features
The airport features multiple runways with varying surfaces: a 9,514-foot asphalted primary runway (07/25), complemented by three additional grass/gravel runways ranging from 1,980 to 5,840 feet. Its mid-latitude location suggests potential for rapidly changing meteorological conditions, particularly during seasonal transitions.
Approach Considerations
Approach planning should consider the airport's diverse runway configuration, with the primary 07/25 asphalted runway offering the longest and most robust surface. September through November represent the most statistically favorable months for VFR conditions, potentially providing more predictable approach and landing scenarios for pilots.
