Weather Briefing

MVFR

Agra Airport / Agra Air Force Station is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with clear skies and 6 km visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the northwest (320°) at 8 knots. Runway 30 is favored with a 8-knot headwind and 3-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 6 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 40°C (104°F) with a dewpoint of 20°C, indicating very dry conditions. High temperatures at this elevation may result in significant density altitude effects. Pilots should calculate density altitude and adjust performance expectations accordingly.

Forecast Outlook

The TAF forecast covers the next 30 hours. Conditions are expected to remain MVFR throughout the forecast period. Expected weather includes: Haze. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast between 08:00Z and 12:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Haze between 00:00Z and 02:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

VFR pilots should exercise caution. Consider filing IFR if instrument rated, or postponing the flight if conditions are expected to deteriorate further.

This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Agra Airport / Agra Air Force Station

Agra Airport / Agra Air Force Station is a military facility. Civilian access may be restricted or require Prior Permission (PPR). Pilots should consult the IN AIP for current access procedures and restrictions.

Overview

Agra Airport serves as a multi-purpose airfield located in Uttar Pradesh, India, functioning primarily as an Air Force Station. Situated at an elevation of 551 feet mean sea level, the airport is positioned near the historic city of Agra, known for the Taj Mahal. The airport supports both military and potential civil aviation operations.

Flying Conditions

Agra's airport experiences typical North Indian continental climate with significant seasonal temperature variations. Pilots should anticipate potential thermal turbulence during summer months due to the airport's inland location and elevation. Wind patterns can vary considerably, with runways 05/23 and 12/30 providing options for different wind conditions.

Notable Features

The airport features two concrete runways: a primary 9000-foot runway (05/23) and a secondary 5964-foot runway (12/30). Its medium airport classification indicates capability for handling a range of aircraft types, from smaller military transport planes to medium-sized commercial aircraft. The surrounding terrain is predominantly flat, characteristic of the Uttar Pradesh region.

Approach Considerations

Runway selection will depend on prevailing wind direction, with the longer 05/23 runway offering more flexibility for larger aircraft. The airport's moderate elevation of 551 feet MSL provides relatively straightforward approach considerations without significant altitude-related complexities. Pilots should review current meteorological conditions and wind data for optimal runway selection.
