Weather Briefing

MVFR

Dhana Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with few clouds at 9,000 feet and 6 km visibility. Note: This observation is 8.8 hours old and conditions may have changed.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the east (90°) at 5 knots. Runway 17/35 is favored with a 1-knot headwind and 5-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 6 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 9,000 ft.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 35°C (95°F) with a dewpoint of 18°C, indicating very dry conditions. High temperatures at this elevation may result in significant density altitude effects. Pilots should calculate density altitude and adjust performance expectations accordingly.

Pilot Recommendations

VFR pilots should exercise caution. Consider filing IFR if instrument rated, or postponing the flight if conditions are expected to deteriorate further.

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