Weather Briefing
MVFRSanta Bernardina International Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 1,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the west-southwest (240°) at 10 knots. Runway 21 is favored with a 9-knot headwind and 5-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 1000 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 13°C (55°F) with a dewpoint of 11°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: Fog. Temporary LIFR conditions are forecast with Fog between 06:00Z 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 narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours. 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 Santa Bernardina International Airport
Overview
Santa Bernardina International Airport serves Durazno, Uruguay, as a medium-sized airport located at coordinates -33.358898, -56.499199. Situated at 305 feet above mean sea level, the airport provides critical transportation infrastructure for the region. Its two runways enable diverse aircraft operations in central Uruguay.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Santa Bernardina demonstrate high predictability, with VFR conditions dominating 80.8% of observations. Eastern winds prevail at an average of 8.5 knots, creating generally stable flying environments. Temperature ranges from 3°C to 38°C, with an average of 20°C, suggesting significant seasonal variation that pilots should consider during flight planning.
Notable Features
Both runways (03/21 and 10/28) offer excellent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind conditions. The primary runway 03/21 is 7,477 feet long with a PEM surface, while the secondary runway 10/28 measures 4,764 feet with an ASP surface. Average crosswind conditions remain moderate at 5.2-5.5 knots, supporting predictable landing and takeoff scenarios.
Approach Considerations
January, November, and December represent the best VFR months for operations. Visibility averages 10 statute miles, with minimal instances of reduced visibility (fog present in only 1.8% of observations). Pilots can expect consistent approach conditions, particularly during peak VFR months, with low probability of challenging meteorological interruptions.
