Weather Briefing

IFR

Deoghar Airport is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with broken clouds at 9,000 feet and 2.5 km visibility. Note: This observation is 4.5 hours old and conditions may have changed.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the south (170°) at 4 knots.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is reduced to 2.5 km. IFR conditions prevail and an instrument clearance is required for operations in controlled airspace. The ceiling is 9000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 3,000 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 25°C (77°F) with a dewpoint of 21°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 9 hours. Conditions are expected to remain IFR throughout the forecast period. Expected weather includes: Light Thunderstorm Rain, Mist, Haze.

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.
