Weather Briefing
MVFRUtti Air Base is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 1,900 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the north-northeast (30°) at 6 knots. Runway 07/25 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 4-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 1900 feet AGL (overcast), placing conditions in the MVFR category.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 14°C (57°F) with a dewpoint of 13°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
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. Temporary LIFR conditions are forecast between 21:00Z and 06:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
VFR pilots should exercise caution. Consider filing IFR if instrument rated, or postponing the flight if conditions are expected to deteriorate further. 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.

About Utti Air Base
Utti Air Base is a military facility. Civilian access may be restricted or require Prior Permission (PPR). Pilots should consult the FI AIP for current access procedures and restrictions.
Overview
Utti Air Base (EFUT) is a medium-sized airport located in southeastern Finland, situated near the towns of Utti and Valkeala. The airport sits at an elevation of 339 feet above mean sea level and serves as a strategic aviation facility in the region, supporting both military and potentially civilian operations.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Utti are characterized by significant variability, with instrument flight rules (IFR) and marginal VFR conditions prevalent for approximately 63.5% of observed periods. Temperature ranges from -22°C to 23°C, with an average of 2.2°C, presenting potential challenges for aircraft performance and icing conditions. September, October, and January offer the most favorable visual flight conditions.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway 07/25, measuring 6,562 feet and constructed with asphalt surface. Wind patterns are predominantly from the south (180°) with an average speed of 7.5 knots and occasional gusts up to 21 knots. The local wind conditions create a consistent crosswind scenario, with an average crosswind of 5.2 knots across the runway.
Approach Considerations
Runway 07/25 demonstrates favorable wind alignment 100% of the time, providing consistent approach conditions. Pilots should anticipate potential low visibility scenarios, with fog present in 8.7% of observations and an average visibility of 10 statute miles. The comprehensive weather data suggests careful pre-flight planning and potential instrument approach considerations.
