Weather Briefing
MVFRCarrasco General Cesáreo L. Berisso International Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 2,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south (170°) at 6 knots. Runway 19 is favored with a 6-knot headwind and 2-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 2000 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 9°C (48°F) with a dewpoint of 5°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.
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: RADZ, Mist, Patches Fog. There is a 30% probability of MVFR conditions with RADZ between 12:00Z and 15:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Mist between 02:00Z and 12:00Z. There is a 30% probability of LIFR conditions with Patches Fog between 05:00Z and 11:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
VFR pilots should exercise caution. Consider filing IFR if instrument rated, or postponing the flight if conditions are expected to deteriorate further. 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 Carrasco General Cesáreo L. Berisso International Airport
Overview
Carrasco General Cesáreo L. Berisso International Airport serves Ciudad de la Costa, Uruguay, as a major international airport. Located at 105 ft MSL with coordinates -34.835647, -56.026497, the airport features three runways with lengths ranging from 5,577 to 10,499 feet. It is a critical transportation hub for the region, supporting commercial and potentially military aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at SUMU are predominantly favorable for flying, with 84.6% of observations indicating VFR conditions. The airport experiences prevailing southeast winds at an average of 8.8 knots, with temperatures ranging from 4°C to 38°C and an average of 20.1°C. January, October, and November offer the best VFR flying conditions, with minimal instances of low visibility or instrument meteorological conditions.
Notable Features
The airport features three runways with different orientations: 01/19, 07/25, and 10/28, providing multiple approach options. All three runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind coverage, with relatively low average crosswind components between 5.5 and 6.3 knots. The airport's low elevation and coastal location suggest potential maritime influence on local weather patterns.
Approach Considerations
Pilots can expect consistent wind conditions from the southeast, which align favorably with all runway configurations. The runways offer excellent wind alignment, minimizing crosswind challenges during approach and landing. With an average visibility of 10 statute miles and only 2.6% fog occurrence, visual approaches are typically viable, though pilots should always verify current METAR and TAF information before flight.
