Weather Briefing
VFRSiem Reap-Angkor International Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 1,500 feet and 9 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the west (260°) at 8 knots. Runway 23 is favored with a 7-knot headwind and 4-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 9 km. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: scattered at 1,500 ft, scattered at 4,000 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 27°C (81°F) with a dewpoint of 24°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 24 hours. Conditions are expected to remain VFR throughout the forecast period.
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.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport
Overview
Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport serves as the primary aviation gateway to Cambodia's historic Angkor region. Located at 13.369167°N, 104.223056°E, the airport provides critical international and domestic air connectivity for the Siem Reap province, which hosts UNESCO World Heritage sites. As a large airport with significant infrastructure, it supports substantial passenger and cargo operations.
Flying Conditions
The airport sits at an elevation of 191 feet above mean sea level, which provides relatively stable atmospheric conditions. Pilots can expect typical tropical southeast Asian weather patterns, characterized by distinct wet and dry seasons that can impact visibility and surface conditions. The single concrete runway (05/23) measuring 11,827 feet offers substantial operational flexibility for various aircraft types.
Notable Features
The airport's geographic positioning near the Tonle Sap region introduces potential microclimatic variations that pilots should monitor carefully. Surrounding terrain is predominantly flat, which generally provides straightforward approach and departure profiles. The substantial runway length accommodates wide-body aircraft and provides significant margins for safe operations.
Approach Considerations
Runway 05/23's orientation suggests potential wind variations that could influence approach and landing strategies. Pilots should anticipate standard tropical airport considerations such as potential thermal activity and potential afternoon convective developments. The concrete runway surface provides consistent braking characteristics across varying meteorological conditions.
