Wind Analysis

Winds are from the east (90°) at 10 knots. Runway 11/29 is favored with a 9-knot headwind and 3-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 8 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 2,000 ft (CB), scattered at 2,200 ft. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 2,000 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 30°C (86°F) with a dewpoint of 22°C, indicating moderate moisture conditions.

Forecast Outlook

The TAF forecast covers the next 24 hours. The forecast shows a transition between VFR and IFR conditions. Pilots should monitor the forecast closely and have an alternate airport plan. Expected weather includes: Light Thunderstorm Rain. There is a 30% probability of IFR conditions with Light Thunderstorm Rain between 20:00Z and 02:00Z.

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 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 Casa De Campo International Airport

Overview

Casa De Campo International Airport serves La Romana, Dominican Republic, as a critical transportation hub for the southeastern region. Located at 18.452222, -68.911111, the airport operates at an elevation of 213 ft above mean sea level and supports large airport infrastructure. Its single runway (11/29) provides 9,678 feet of concrete surface for commercial and general aviation operations.

Flying Conditions

The airport's Caribbean coastal location suggests potential for variable maritime weather conditions with potential wind shifts across the runway axis. Pilots should anticipate tropical atmospheric patterns typical of the Dominican Republic, which can include rapid convective development and periodic thunderstorm activity. The airport's moderate elevation and substantial runway length offer good operational flexibility during diverse meteorological scenarios.

Notable Features

Casa De Campo International Airport is positioned in a coastal region with likely complex terrain interactions between maritime and land-based wind patterns. The single runway's substantial 9,678-foot length accommodates a wide range of aircraft types, from regional commuters to larger international aircraft. Its geographic position suggests potential for crosswind conditions requiring careful navigation and runway selection.

Approach Considerations

Runway 11/29's orientation indicates potential preference based on prevailing wind conditions, with approaches potentially influenced by regional wind patterns. The concrete runway surface provides consistent braking characteristics across its full 9,678-foot length. Pilots should conduct standard terrain and wind assessments during pre-flight planning, with particular attention to potential maritime meteorological influences.
