Weather Briefing
VFRCecil Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 6,500 feet and 10 SM visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the west-northwest (300°) at 6 knots. Runway 27 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 3-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 10 SM. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: scattered at 6,500 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 36°C (97°F) with a dewpoint of 20°C, indicating very dry conditions. High temperatures at this elevation may result in significant density altitude effects. Pilots should calculate density altitude and adjust performance expectations accordingly.
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, Mist. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 20:00Z and 00:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Mist between 07:00Z and 11:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. 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 Cecil Airport
Overview
Cecil Airport is a medium-sized airport located in Jacksonville, Florida, serving as an important regional aviation facility. Situated at 81 feet above mean sea level, the airport provides strategic access to Northeast Florida with four substantial runways ranging from 8,002 to 12,504 feet in length. Its geographic positioning and runway infrastructure make it suitable for various aircraft operations.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Cecil Airport demonstrate significant variability, with visual flight rules (VFR) predominating 70.8% of observed periods. Pilots can expect northerly winds averaging 7.4 knots, with calm conditions occurring 47.1% of the time. Temperature ranges from -8°C to 34°C, and visibility typically exceeds 9 statute miles, though fog occurs in 13% of observations and conditions can drop below 3 miles in 4% of cases.
Notable Features
The airport features four parallel runways with precision pavement (PEM) surfaces, offering multiple operational configurations. All four runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, with modest average crosswind conditions ranging from 4.1 to 5.1 knots. The extensive runway lengths, particularly the 12,504-foot Runway 18L/36R, accommodate a wide range of aircraft types and operational requirements.
Approach Considerations
Seasonal considerations suggest September, November, and January offer the most consistent VFR conditions for operations. With multiple runways available, pilots have flexible approach options that align well with prevailing wind patterns. The airport's weather profile indicates instrument meteorological conditions (IMC) occur in approximately 29.2% of observations, recommending thorough pre-flight weather briefings and alternate planning.
