Weather Briefing
VFRLagoa Santa Air Base is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 10,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the southeast (140°) at 10 knots. Runway 13/31 is favored with a 10-knot headwind and 2-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 4,500 ft, few at 5,000 ft (CB), scattered at 10,000 ft. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 5,000 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 24°C (75°F) with a dewpoint of 20°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.

About Lagoa Santa Air Base
Lagoa Santa Air Base is a military facility. Civilian access may be restricted or require Prior Permission (PPR). Pilots should consult the BR AIP for current access procedures and restrictions.
Lagoa Santa Air Base (SBLS) is located in Lagoa Santa, BR at an elevation of 2,795 feet MSL. The airport has 1 runway (13/31), with the longest at 6,037 feet.
Weather Profile
Analysis of 3,417 weather observations shows SBLS maintains VFR conditions 82.9% of the time, with marginal VFR accounting for 9.8% and IFR/LIFR conditions present in 7.2% of reports.
Wind Patterns & Runway Selection
Prevailing winds at SBLS come from the SE (135°) with an average speed of 6.3 knots. Calm winds are rare (0.5%), so crosswind considerations are a regular factor. Runway 13/31 offers the lowest average crosswind component at 2.2 knots, making it the preferred choice in typical wind conditions.
Seasonal Considerations
The best months for VFR operations are October, September, April, when clear skies are most prevalent. Temperatures at the field range from 12°C (54°F) to 34°C (93°F), averaging 24°C (75°F). Altimeter settings typically range from 10.08 to 10.22 inHg (341-346 hPa).
