Weather Briefing
LIFRAeropuerto Nacional de Itaipú is currently reporting low IFR (LIFR) conditions with clear skies and 0.8 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south-southeast (160°) at 2 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is severely reduced to 0.8 km, likely due to fog, mist, or precipitation. Special VFR or an IFR clearance may be required. Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 20°C (68°F) with a dewpoint of 19°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. IFR conditions are expected to persist or develop. An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are recommended. Expected weather includes: Fog, Light Rain, Thunderstorm Rain. There is a 30% probability of IFR conditions with Light Rain between 13:00Z and 17:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 18:00Z and 22:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Current conditions require an instrument rating, IFR-equipped aircraft, and an IFR clearance. Check approach minimums carefully as conditions may be below CAT I ILS minimums. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours.

About Aeropuerto Nacional de Itaipú
Overview
Aeropuerto Nacional de Itaipú is a medium airport situated in Itaipú, Paraguay, identified by ICAO code SGIB. Located at coordinates -25.407818, -54.619457, the airport serves regional transportation needs in its geographic area. With an elevation of 762 feet above mean sea level, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the local region.
Flying Conditions
The airport's elevation of 762 ft MSL suggests a moderate terrain environment that typically experiences stable atmospheric conditions. Pilots should anticipate standard mid-altitude weather variations typical to Paraguay's subtropical climate. The single asphalt runway (03/21) measuring 4,987 feet provides reasonable operational flexibility for medium-sized aircraft.
Notable Features
The airport's runway orientation of 03/21 indicates a northeast/southwest alignment, which can influence wind patterns and approach strategies. Its asphalt surface is suitable for most medium-category aircraft operations. The geographic coordinates suggest the airport is positioned in a relatively flat region, which likely contributes to consistent approach and departure conditions.
Approach Considerations
Runway 03/21's substantial length of 4,987 feet offers adequate landing and takeoff capabilities for most medium-sized aircraft. Pilots should plan approaches considering the runway's northeast/southwest orientation, which may interact with prevailing regional wind patterns. Standard instrument approach procedures and visual flight rules should be consulted for specific operational details.
