Weather Briefing
VFRTimmins/Victor M. Power is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 8,000 feet and 15 SM visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south-southwest (210°) at 6 knots. Runway 21 is favored with a 6-knot headwind and 0-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 15 SM. The ceiling is 8000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 14°C (57°F) with a dewpoint of 11°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 12 hours. The forecast shows a transition between VFR and IFR conditions. Pilots should monitor the forecast closely and have an alternate airport plan. Expected weather includes: Light Showers Rain, Mist, Thunderstorm Rain, Mist, FCST. Temporary VFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Rain, Mist between 11:00Z and 13:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Rain, Mist between 15:00Z and 20:00Z. There is a 30% probability of IFR conditions with Thunderstorm Rain, Mist, FCST between 15:00Z and 18:00Z.
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. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About Timmins/Victor M. Power
Overview
Timmins/Victor M. Power Airport serves the northeastern Ontario region, located in the city of Timmins at an elevation of 967 feet MSL. As a medium-sized airport, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for transportation, resource industry support, and regional connectivity in a challenging northern Canadian environment.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at CYTS demonstrate significant variability, with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) conditions prevailing 48.1% of the time. Winter temperatures can drop to -36°C, while summer peaks at 28°C, creating dynamic seasonal flying challenges. Wind patterns are predominantly southerly at an average of 7 knots, with occasional gusts up to 24 knots that pilots must anticipate.
Notable Features
Both runways (03/21 and 10/28) are asphalt-surfaced with substantial lengths of 6000 and 4903 feet respectively. The airport experiences diverse meteorological conditions, including reduced visibility events, with observations showing below 3-mile visibility in 5.8% of recorded conditions and fog present 2.9% of the time. September, October, and January offer the most consistently favorable VFR flying conditions.
Approach Considerations
Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, with minimal average crosswind components (4.9 knots for 03/21 and 4.5 knots for 10/28). Pilots should be prepared for potential instrument meteorological conditions, as IFR and MVFR conditions combine to represent 47.5% of observed weather patterns. The airport's moderate crosswind characteristics and substantial runway lengths provide flexibility for most aircraft operations.
