Weather Briefing
IFRAeropuerto Internacional Guaraní is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with overcast skies at 2,500 feet and 7 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east-northeast (70°) at 8 knots. Runway 05/23 is favored with a 8-knot headwind and 3-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 7 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. The ceiling is 700 feet AGL (broken). Only precision approaches may be usable depending on minimums. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 4,000 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 17°C (63°F) with a dewpoint of 16°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: Thunderstorm Rain, Mist, Rain, Mist, Thunderstorm Rain. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Rain, Mist between 20:00Z and 23:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 00:00Z and 04:00Z. There is a 30% probability of MVFR conditions with Thunderstorm Rain, Mist between 05:00Z and 11:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are required. Verify that destination and alternate approach minimums are above current and forecast conditions. 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 Aeropuerto Internacional Guaraní
Overview
Aeropuerto Internacional Guaraní serves Ciudad del Este, Paraguay, as a key international airport located in the southeastern region of the country. Situated at an elevation of 846 ft MSL, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the eastern Paraguay region and international connections.
Flying Conditions
The airport's elevation at 846 ft MSL indicates a moderate terrain environment with potential for varied meteorological conditions. Pilots should anticipate typical subtropical climate patterns common to the region, which can include rapid weather transitions and potential convective activity.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (05/23) with a substantial length of 11,154 feet constructed with asphalt surface. Its geographic coordinates at -25.457186, -54.839544 position the airport near the tri-border area between Paraguay, Brazil, and Argentina, providing strategic regional connectivity.
Approach Considerations
Runway 05/23 offers a long 11,154 ft asphalt surface, providing generous operational flexibility for diverse aircraft types and approach scenarios. The runway's orientation suggests potential wind considerations from approximately 050 and 230 degree headings, which pilots should factor into their approach and landing planning.
