Minimums - Aviation Weather

Set categories you'll never fly in. Guided setup adapts to your rating. Refreshed map and wind cards. The most polished Minimums yet.

Minimums turns raw METARs and TAF forecasts into clear, plain-English weather briefings — and tells you whether conditions meet your personal minimums before you fly. Minimums decodes live METAR reports and TAF forecasts into easy-to-read cards showing wind, visibility, ceiling, temperature, altimeter, density altitude, and weather phenomena — all at a glance.

SET YOUR PERSONAL MINIMUMS Define your ceiling, visibility, wind, gust, and crosswind limits. Minimums instantly checks conditions at any airport and gives you a clear Go or No-Go assessment with a violations table showing exactly what exceeds your limits.

GUIDED SETUP FOR EVERY PILOT Not sure where to start? Answer four simple questions — certificate level, instrument rating, flight hours, and crosswind comfort — and get minimums tailored to your experience. Fine-tune every value before applying.

TAF FORECASTS DECODED See the next 24–30 hours as timeline cards, color-coded by flight category. FROM, GRADUAL, BRIEF, and PROBABILITY change types are translated into plain English. Tap to expand alternate scenarios.

LIVE CONUS MAP Every reporting station color-coded by flight category — green for VFR, blue for MVFR, red for IFR, magenta for LIFR. Filter by category or your personal minimums to see only airports that meet your limits. CROSSWIND CALCULATOR Minimums knows every runway at every airport. It automatically calculates crosswind and headwind components for the best available runway and checks against your personal limit.
