Weather Briefing
VFRAmpara Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 10,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the west-southwest (250°) at 9 knots. Runway 25 is favored with a 9-knot headwind and 0-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 10000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 29°C (84°F) with a dewpoint of 26°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Ampara Airport
Overview
Ampara Airport serves the Ampara District in eastern Sri Lanka, positioned at coordinates 7.336745, 81.623869. As a medium-sized airport with an elevation of 150 feet above mean sea level, it provides essential regional aviation connectivity for the eastern provincial area.
Flying Conditions
The airport's relatively low elevation and tropical location suggest potential for high humidity and variable wind conditions. Pilots should anticipate typical Sri Lankan maritime climate characteristics, with potential for rapid weather transitions characteristic of coastal and near-coastal environments.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (07/25) with an asphalt surface measuring 3,600 feet in length. Its geographic position in eastern Sri Lanka indicates potential terrain variations and localized meteorological influences that pilots should carefully assess during pre-flight planning.
Approach Considerations
Runway 07/25's orientation suggests potential wind alignment considerations for approach and departure procedures. Pilots should carefully evaluate current wind conditions and runway length when planning operations, noting the 3,600-foot asphalt runway's operational limitations for different aircraft types.
