Visibility & Ceiling
Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 18°C (64°F) with a dewpoint of 17°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 12 hours. Conditions are expected to remain VFR throughout the forecast period.
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.

About Lauro Carneiro de Loyola Airport
Overview
Lauro Carneiro de Loyola Airport serves the city of Joinville in southern Brazil, positioned at a low elevation of 15 feet MSL. As a medium-sized airport, it supports regional and domestic aviation operations in Santa Catarina state. The airport's infrastructure includes a single 5,381-foot asphalted runway oriented 15/33.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions are predominantly visual (VFR at 71.5%), with excellent visibility averaging 10 statute miles. Seasonal patterns show most favorable flying conditions in January, December, and September, with temperatures ranging from 10°C to 37°C and an average of 23.3°C. Winds are consistently from the southeast (135°), averaging 5.3 knots with occasional peaks to 20 knots.
Notable Features
The airport's geographic location near the coast influences its consistent wind patterns, with southeast winds dominating 92.9% of observed conditions. Its low elevation and flat surrounding terrain provide predictable approach characteristics. The single runway offers straightforward operational flexibility with minimal terrain-related complications.
Approach Considerations
Runway 15/33 experiences favorable wind conditions 100% of the time, with an average crosswind component of only 3 knots. Pilots can expect reliable wind alignment and minimal wind-related approach challenges. The statistically low occurrence of instrument meteorological conditions (IFR at 7.5%, LIFR at 3.1%) suggests generally stable approach environments.
