Weather Briefing

IFR

Dimapur Airport is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with broken clouds at 9,000 feet and 3 km visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the north-northwest (340°) at 3 knots.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is reduced to 3 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.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 26°C (79°F) with a dewpoint of 25°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.

Pilot Recommendations

An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are required. Verify that destination and alternate approach minimums are above current and forecast conditions. 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.

Dimapur Airport serves the Nagaland region in northeastern India, located at 25.883900N, 93.771103E with an elevation of 487 feet MSL. As a medium-sized airport, it provides critical air connectivity to this mountainous border state, supporting regional and potentially limited commercial operations.

Flying Conditions

Meteorological data indicates mixed flying conditions, with 53.8% MVFR and 46% IFR conditions throughout the year. Temperature variability is significant, ranging from 12°C to 37°C with an average of 27.4°C. Pilots can expect predominantly northerly winds averaging 3.8 knots, with calm conditions occurring 32.3% of the time.

Notable Features

The airport features a single runway 12/30 measuring 7,513 feet with an asphalt surface. Its location in northeastern India suggests proximity to complex terrain, potentially involving mountainous approach environments. The relatively low elevation and moderate runway length accommodate most regional aircraft types.

Approach Considerations

Runway 12/30 demonstrates 100% favorable wind alignment, with an average crosswind of only 2.5 knots. January, September, and October represent the best months for visual flight conditions, offering more consistent weather patterns. Pilots should anticipate potential IFR transitions and prepare for variable visibility conditions.
