Weather Briefing

MVFR

Bermejo Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 7,000 feet and 5 km visibility. Note: This observation is 24.6 hours old and conditions may have changed.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the north-northeast (30°) at 5 knots. Runway 01/19 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 2-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 5 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. The ceiling is 1000 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 9°C (48°F) with a dewpoint of 7°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.

Bermejo Airport serves the southern Bolivian region, located at coordinates -22.773300, -64.312897 near the town of Bermejo. As a medium-sized airport situated at 1,249 feet above mean sea level, it provides essential aviation infrastructure for regional transportation and local operational needs.

Flying Conditions

The airport's elevation at 1,249 ft MSL suggests a moderate terrain environment typical of Bolivia's southeastern landscape. Pilots should anticipate potential thermal variations and localized wind patterns common to this geographical region, which can influence approach and departure conditions.

Notable Features

Bermejo Airport features a single runway (01/19) measuring 4,921 feet in length with an asphalt surface. The runway's orientation suggests potential crosswind considerations during approach and takeoff, with terrain and regional topography potentially influencing wind dynamics.

Approach Considerations

The 4,921-foot asphalt runway provides adequate length for most medium-sized aircraft operations. Pilots should prepare for potential terrain-induced wind shifts and carefully assess runway conditions, particularly considering the airport's specific geographic location in southern Bolivia.
