Weather Briefing
IFRVadodara Airport is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with broken clouds at 8,000 feet and 4 km visibility. Note: This observation is 12.9 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the north-northwest (330°) at 9 knots. Runway 04/22 is favored with a 3-knot headwind and 8-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is reduced to 4 km. IFR conditions prevail and an instrument clearance is required for operations in controlled airspace. The ceiling is 8000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 31°C (88°F) with a dewpoint of 25°C, indicating moderate moisture 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
An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are required. Verify that destination and alternate approach minimums are above current and forecast conditions.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Vadodara Airport
Overview
Vadodara Airport serves as a medium-sized airport located in Gujarat, India, positioned at 22.336201N, 73.226303E with an elevation of 129 feet MSL. The airport supports regional and domestic aviation operations with a single runway (04/22) measuring 8,100 feet and constructed with asphalt surface.
Flying Conditions
Statistical data indicates challenging instrument meteorological conditions, with 56.6% of observations reporting IFR and 4.5% LIFR conditions. Temperature variations range from 11°C to 37°C, averaging 25.8°C, which can impact aircraft performance and density altitude considerations. January, September, and October represent the most favorable months for visual flight operations.
Notable Features
The airport experiences predominantly northerly winds averaging 4.5 knots, with maximum gusts reaching 15 knots and calm conditions occurring 12% of the time. Visibility consistently remains strong, with an average of 10 statute miles and minimal instances of reduced visibility or fog (only 0.4% of observations).
Approach Considerations
Runway 04/22 demonstrates highly favorable wind alignment, with 100% wind compatibility and minimal average crosswind at 2.5 knots. Pilots can expect predictable wind conditions that generally support straightforward approach and landing procedures, particularly during peak VFR months.
