FORECAST & PILOT NOTES · SUPPLEMENTAL

Pilot weather notes

Current aviation conditions show flight category MVFR, wind from 90° at 5 kt, visibility 3.11 SM, ceiling none. This report is older than usual, so treat it with caution. No extended National Weather Service forecast is available for this location. Key risks: high temperature.

PILOT WEATHER NOTES
High temperatureMETAR
Temperature 36C. Hot conditions degrade engine and climb performance; expect higher density altitude.
