Weather Briefing
MVFRAlfonso Bonilla Aragon International Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 8,000 feet and 8 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the variable directions at 3 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 8 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. The ceiling is 8000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 25°C (77°F) with a dewpoint of 22°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods. High temperatures at this elevation may result in significant density altitude effects. Pilots should calculate density altitude and adjust performance expectations accordingly.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 24 hours. Conditions are expected to remain VFR throughout the forecast period.
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 Alfonso Bonilla Aragon International Airport
Overview
Alfonso Bonilla Aragon International Airport serves Cali, Colombia, functioning as a critical medium-sized airport at an elevation of 3,162 feet MSL. Located at coordinates 3.543220, -76.381600, the airport provides essential aviation infrastructure for the Cauca Valley region. Its single runway 02/20, measuring 9,842 feet with an asphalt surface, supports regional and international commercial operations.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences predominantly VFR conditions, with 80% of observations indicating good visual flight rules. Temperature ranges from 16°C to 33°C, averaging 23.2°C, which provides stable flying conditions. Wind patterns are consistently from the north (0°) at an average of 5.3 knots, with occasional gusts up to 19 knots, making for generally predictable atmospheric conditions.
Notable Features
Situated at a moderate elevation of 3,162 feet, the airport's terrain may present subtle altitude-related performance considerations for aircraft. The surrounding geography likely influences local wind patterns and potential turbulence. Pilots should note the consistent northerly wind direction, which remains stable across most meteorological observations.
Approach Considerations
Runway 02/20 demonstrates 100% favorable wind alignment, with an average crosswind of only 3.1 knots. December, September, and January represent the most consistently favorable VFR months for operations. The high visibility average of 10 statute miles, combined with minimal fog occurrence (3.9%), generally supports straightforward approach and landing procedures.
