Weather Briefing
MVFRGranville Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 1,000 feet.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the north-northwest (330°) at 7 knots. Runway 06/24 is favored with a 0-knot headwind and 7-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
The ceiling is 1000 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 20°C (68°F) with a dewpoint of 15°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: Mist. There is a 40% probability of MVFR conditions between 10:00Z and 18:00Z. There is a 40% probability of LIFR conditions with Mist between 00:00Z 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 forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About Granville Airport
Overview
Granville Airport (LFRF) is a medium-sized airport located in Bréville-sur-Mer, within the Manche department of Normandy, France. Situated at an elevation of 45 feet above mean sea level, the airport serves the coastal region near Granville. Its strategic location provides access to the northwestern French maritime landscape.
Flying Conditions
Being a coastal airport, Granville experiences maritime weather influences that can create variable conditions for pilots. The airport's low elevation at 45 ft MSL suggests minimal terrain-related turbulence, but proximity to the English Channel can introduce rapid weather shifts. Pilots should anticipate potential marine layer formations and wind variations typical of coastal environments.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (06/24) with an asphaltic surface measuring 3,150 feet in length. Its orientation suggests potential crosswind scenarios, particularly given the coastal geographic setting. The relatively moderate runway length accommodates smaller aircraft and supports regional aviation operations in the Normandy region.
Approach Considerations
Runway 06/24's orientation indicates that prevailing winds will significantly influence approach and landing strategies. Pilots should prepare for potential crosswind conditions and be prepared to adjust their landing technique accordingly. The airport's coastal location may require heightened awareness of wind shear and localized meteorological phenomena during approach.
