Weather Briefing
VFREduardo Gomes International Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 7,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the north-northeast (30°) at 4 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 7000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums. Caution: towering cumulus clouds reported at 2,500 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 24°C (75°F) with a dewpoint of 23°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. The forecast shows a transition between VFR and IFR conditions. Pilots should monitor the forecast closely and have an alternate airport plan. Expected weather includes: Mist. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast between 18:00Z and 22:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Mist between 09:00Z and 14:00Z.
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.

About Eduardo Gomes International Airport
Overview
Eduardo Gomes International Airport serves as the primary international airport for Manaus, located in the heart of the Amazon rainforest region of Brazil. Situated at an elevation of 264 feet mean sea level, the airport is a critical transportation hub for the Amazonas state, facilitating both commercial passenger and cargo operations. Its single runway (11/29) extends 8,858 feet, accommodating large aircraft with its robust ASPH 71/F/C/X/T classification.
Flying Conditions
The airport's tropical rainforest location presents dynamic weather conditions characterized by high humidity and frequent precipitation. Pilots should anticipate significant convective activity, especially during the wet season, which can impact visibility and approach conditions. The airport's geographic position near the equator ensures relatively consistent temperature ranges, though thunderstorm development can be rapid and intense.
Notable Features
Eduardo Gomes International Airport is positioned at coordinates -3.038610, -60.049702, placing it in a challenging geographical environment with complex terrain surrounding the airport. The extensive runway length of 8,858 feet provides substantial operational flexibility for various aircraft types, including wide-body international carriers and regional aircraft. Its strategic location makes it a crucial gateway for transportation in the Amazon basin.
Approach Considerations
Runway 11/29 offers a substantial landing surface that can handle significant aircraft variations, with its 8,858-foot length providing ample stopping distance. Prevailing wind patterns and the runway's orientation suggest pilots should be prepared for potential crosswind conditions. Standard instrument approach procedures will be necessary given the airport's tropical environment and potential meteorological variability.
