Weather Briefing
VFRMariehamn Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with few clouds at 1,100 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south (170°) at 15 knots. Runway 21 is favored with a 11-knot headwind and 10-knot crosswind component. Student pilots and low-time aviators should exercise caution.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 1,100 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 9°C (48°F) with a dewpoint of 6°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. 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: Showers Rain. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Showers Rain between 19:00Z and 22:00Z.
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.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.
