The latest observation at Svalbard Airport was issued at 30 Sep 10:20Z. Wind is from east-southeast (120°) at 4 knots. Visibility is 10 kilometres or better. The sky shows a few clouds at 2,000 ft, broken cloud at 3,000 ft. Temperature is -3 °C with a dew point of -5 °C, a narrow spread that favours mist or fog forming. The altimeter setting is 1028 hPa (30.36 inHg). These conditions classify the field as MVFR. Marginal visual conditions — legal for VFR but tightening.

About ENSB weather reports

Svalbard Airport issues a routine METAR observation about every half hour, plus a SPECI whenever conditions change sharply. The TAF above forecasts the next 24 to 30 hours within roughly five nautical miles of the field. Both are decoded on this page: the raw code stays visible for anyone who wants it, and everything below it is the same information in plain language, colour and diagram form.

Use the runway diagram to see how the current wind splits into headwind and crosswind on each runway end, the meteogram to plan the next week, and the trend charts to understand what this airport is normally like — how often it goes IFR, which direction the wind usually comes from, and when in the day it tends to turn.
