Weather Briefing
LIFRJersey Airport is currently reporting low IFR (LIFR) conditions with broken clouds at 200 feet and 2.5 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the west (270°) at 9 knots. Runway 26 is favored with a 9-knot headwind and 2-knot crosswind component.
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 very low at 200 feet AGL (broken), well below circling minimums at most airports.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 17°C (63°F) with a dewpoint of 16°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. Expected weather includes: Mist, Fog. There is a 40% probability of LIFR conditions with Mist between 09:00Z and 11:00Z. There is a 30% probability of LIFR conditions with Fog between 09:00Z and 11:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Current conditions require an instrument rating, IFR-equipped aircraft, and an IFR clearance. Check approach minimums carefully as conditions may be below CAT I ILS minimums. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours.

About Jersey Airport
Overview
Jersey Airport (EGJJ) serves as a critical medium-sized airport located in St. Peter, Jersey, situated at an elevation of 277 feet MSL. Positioned at coordinates 49.207901, -2.195510, the airport provides essential aviation infrastructure for the Channel Islands region, supporting various flight operations.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Jersey Airport demonstrate predominantly favorable VFR flying conditions, with 71.6% of observations indicating visual flight rules. Pilots can expect consistent wind patterns predominantly from the south at an average of 12.9 knots, with temperatures ranging from 0°C to 21°C and an average of 11.1°C. The best VFR months are November, September, and October, offering optimal flying conditions.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (08/26) measuring 5,594 feet with an asphalt surface. Wind data indicates 100% runway favorability, with an average crosswind of 7.8 knots, suggesting generally stable approach conditions. Visibility averages 10 statute miles, with minimal instances of restricted visibility (fog occurs in only 1.1% of observations).
Approach Considerations
Runway 08/26 provides consistent wind alignment, with southern prevailing winds supporting predictable approach patterns. Pilots should be prepared for potential wind variations, noting maximum recorded wind speeds of 58 knots. The low occurrence of instrument meteorological conditions (IFR/LIFR at 10.3%) suggests typically reliable visual approach opportunities.
