Weather Briefing

VFR

Campo Grande Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 4,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the northeast (40°) at 7 knots. Runway 06/24 is favored with a 7-knot headwind and 2-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 4000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 4,500 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 18°C (64°F) with a dewpoint of 18°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.

Forecast Outlook

The TAF forecast covers the next 24 hours. Conditions are expected to fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions. Expected weather includes: Thunderstorm Rain. There is a 30% probability of MVFR conditions with Thunderstorm Rain between 08:00Z and 12:00Z. There is a 30% probability of MVFR conditions with Thunderstorm Rain between 18:00Z and 21:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

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