VFRDaytona Beach International Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 15,000 feet and 10 SM visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south-southwest (200°) at 3 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 10 SM. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 2,300 ft, scattered at 15,000 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 24°C (75°F) with a dewpoint of 23°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 24 hours. Conditions are expected to fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions. Expected weather includes: Thunderstorm Rain. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 21:00Z and 01:00Z.
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.

About Daytona Beach International Airport
Overview
Daytona Beach International Airport serves as a medium-sized airport located in east-central Florida, strategically positioned near the Atlantic coast. The airport supports diverse aviation operations with three runways ranging from 3,195 to 10,500 feet in length. Its elevation of 34 feet above mean sea level provides relatively flat terrain for aircraft operations.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at KDAB are predominantly VFR, with 82.2% of observations showing visual flight rules. Winds predominantly come from the north at an average of 7.6 knots, with calm conditions occurring 20.2% of the time. Temperature ranges from -1°C to 32°C, creating generally stable flying conditions throughout the year, with November, September, and December offering the most consistent VFR weather.
Notable Features
The airport features three asphalt runways with favorable wind alignments, allowing for flexible operations across different wind conditions. All runways demonstrate low average crosswind components, ranging from 4.4 to 5.3 knots, which contributes to predictable approach and landing characteristics. The coastal location near Daytona Beach influences local meteorological patterns, with occasional reduced visibility and fog events.
Approach Considerations
Pilots should anticipate generally stable approach conditions with good visibility averaging 9.3 statute miles. Runway 07L/25R offers the longest landing surface at 10,500 feet, providing ample space for most aircraft types. While IFR and LIFR conditions occur in only 7.1% of observations, instrument-rated pilots should be prepared for potential reduced visibility, particularly during the 4% of time when fog is present.
