Weather Briefing
MVFRHugo Cantergiani Regional Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 1,500 feet and 8 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east-southeast (120°) at 4 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 8 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. The ceiling is 1500 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 15°C (59°F) with a dewpoint of 14°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
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 narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Hugo Cantergiani Regional Airport
Overview
Hugo Cantergiani Regional Airport serves Caxias Do Sul, Brazil, positioned at an elevation of 2,472 feet above mean sea level. As a medium-sized airport with a single 5,479-foot asphalted runway (15/33), it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region's transportation needs.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences predominantly visual flight rule (VFR) conditions, with 75.3% of observations supporting VFR operations. Wind patterns are consistently from the northeast at an average of 5.5 knots, with temperatures ranging from 10°C to 33°C and an average of 21.7°C. Pilots can expect optimal VFR conditions during November, September, and January.
Notable Features
Located at coordinates -29.197183, -51.187647, the airport sits in a region with moderate meteorological variability. Visibility averages 10 statute miles, with occasional fog events occurring in approximately 14% of observations. The terrain and elevation suggest a potentially challenging environment requiring careful flight planning.
Approach Considerations
Runway 15/33 offers favorable wind alignment 100% of the time, with an average crosswind of just 3.4 knots. Pilots should anticipate light to moderate wind conditions, with maximum recorded winds reaching 16 knots. The low percentage of instrument meteorological conditions (IFR/LIFR at 10.3%) generally supports predictable approach and departure operations.
