Weather Briefing

LIFR

Diu Airport is currently reporting low IFR (LIFR) conditions with overcast skies at 8,000 feet and 1.5 km visibility. Note: This observation is 64.1 hours old and conditions may have changed.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the south (180°) at 12 knots. Runway 23 is favored with a 8-knot headwind and 9-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is severely reduced to 1.5 km, likely due to fog, mist, or precipitation. Special VFR or an IFR clearance may be required. The ceiling is 8000 feet AGL (overcast), well above standard VFR minimums.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 25°C (77°F) with a dewpoint of 24°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.

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.
