Weather Briefing

MVFR

Tivat Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 7,300 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are calm, presenting no crosswind concerns for any runway.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 2500 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 13°C (55°F) with a dewpoint of 13°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. 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: Thunderstorm Rain. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 00:00Z and 14:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 21:00Z and 00:00Z.

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 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 Tivat Airport

Overview

Tivat Airport serves Montenegro's coastal region, strategically located in the Bay of Kotor at a low elevation of 20 ft MSL. The airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the Adriatic coastal region, supporting commercial and general aviation operations with its 8,208 ft asphalt runway.

Flying Conditions

Weather conditions are predominantly favorable, with VFR conditions present 88.7% of the time. Temperature ranges widely from -5°C to 30°C, with an average of 12.8°C, creating stable flying environments. Winds are typically from the south at an average of 6.5 knots, with calm conditions occurring 40.1% of the time.

Notable Features

The airport's coastal location presents unique geographic considerations, situated near mountainous terrain surrounding the Bay of Kotor. The single runway (14/32) experiences favorable wind alignment 100% of the time, with an average crosswind of only 3.4 knots, which contributes to consistently comfortable approach and departure conditions.

Approach Considerations

September, October, and December represent the best VFR months for operations. Pilots can expect excellent visibility averaging 10 statute miles, with minimal instances of reduced visibility (fog occurs only 3.6% of the time). The prevailing southerly winds and low crosswind conditions make runway 14/32 consistently accessible for most aircraft operations.
