Weather Briefing
MVFRGrenoble Alpes Isère Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 4,100 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the north-northwest (330°) at 7 knots. Runway 27 is favored with a 4-knot headwind and 6-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 1300 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 3,300 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 11°C (52°F) with a dewpoint of 6°C, indicating moderate moisture conditions.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 24 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, Thunderstorm RAGS. Winds are forecast to reach up to 20 knots during the period. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 5 to 20 knots. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Showers Rain between 09:00Z and 20:00Z. There is a 40% probability of LIFR conditions with Thunderstorm RAGS between 10:00Z and 19:00Z.
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 forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About Grenoble Alpes Isère Airport
Overview
Grenoble Alpes Isère Airport serves the Grenoble metropolitan area in southeastern France, situated at 1302 ft MSL. The airport supports regional and seasonal aviation operations, particularly important for alpine tourism and transportation. Its strategic location near mountainous terrain makes it a significant gateway for the Isère region.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect predominantly VFR conditions 59.9% of the time, with MVFR and IFR conditions occurring 34.2% of observations. Temperature variations are substantial, ranging from -9°C to 29°C, with an average of 7.9°C. Wind patterns consistently favor an easterly direction (90°) at an average of 6.7 knots, with maximum gusts reaching 28 knots.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway 09/27 with a substantial length of 10,007 feet, constructed with asphalt surface. Its mountain proximity influences local weather dynamics, contributing to the 10.2% fog occurrence rate. The terrain suggests potential for complex local wind and visibility conditions typical of alpine regions.
Approach Considerations
Runway 09/27 demonstrates extremely favorable wind alignment, with 100% wind compatibility. Average crosswind is minimal at 3.6 knots, providing generally stable approach conditions. Pilots should note September, January, and October offer the most consistent VFR flying conditions based on historical meteorological data.
