Weather Briefing
IFRAnapa Vityazevo Airport is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with broken clouds at 700 feet and 2 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are calm, presenting no crosswind concerns for any runway.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is reduced to 2 km. IFR conditions prevail and an instrument clearance is required for operations in controlled airspace. The ceiling is 700 feet AGL (broken). Only precision approaches may be usable depending on minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 12°C (54°F) with a dewpoint of 11°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: Light Showers Rain, Light Thunderstorm Rain, Light Showers Rain, Fog. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Rain between 21:00Z and 00:00Z. There is a 40% probability of VFR conditions with Light Thunderstorm Rain between 21:00Z and 00:00Z. Temporary LIFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Rain, Fog between 00:00Z and 06:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are required. Verify that destination and alternate approach minimums are above current and forecast conditions. 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.

About Anapa Vityazevo Airport
Overview
Anapa Vityazevo Airport serves the Krasnodar Region in southwestern Russia, located near the Black Sea coast. Situated at 174 feet above mean sea level, this medium-sized airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for regional transportation and potential military/commercial operations in the area.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect highly variable visual conditions, with VFR prevailing 49.6% of the time and significant periods of marginal or instrument flight conditions. Winter temperatures can drop to -13°C, while summer peaks reach 28°C, with an average temperature of 9.2°C. Notably, fog is present 19.3% of the time, which can significantly impact flight planning and operations.
Notable Features
The airport features a substantial concrete runway 04/22 measuring 8,202 feet in length, capable of accommodating medium to large aircraft. Its location near the Black Sea suggests potential maritime meteorological influences and complex local terrain interactions that could affect wind patterns and visibility.
Approach Considerations
September through November represent the most consistent VFR flying months, offering the most stable weather conditions for arrivals and departures. While specific wind data appears limited, pilots should anticipate potential visibility challenges, particularly during fog events that occur in nearly one-fifth of observed conditions.
