Weather Briefing
VFRVal de Cans/Júlio Cezar Ribeiro International Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 8,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the southeast (130°) at 6 knots. Runway 07/20 is favored with a 3-knot headwind and 5-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 8000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums. Caution: towering cumulus clouds reported at 4,000 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 32°C (90°F) with a dewpoint of 24°C, indicating moderate moisture conditions. 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 fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast between 20:00Z and 00:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About Val de Cans/Júlio Cezar Ribeiro International Airport
Overview
Val de Cans/Júlio Cezar Ribeiro International Airport serves Belém, the capital of Pará state in northern Brazil. As a large international airport situated at 54 feet above mean sea level, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the Amazon region. The airport supports significant regional and international passenger and cargo operations.
Flying Conditions
Located near the equator at coordinates -1.379279, -48.476207, the airport experiences consistent tropical climate conditions with high humidity and frequent precipitation. Pilots should anticipate potential convective weather patterns typical of the Amazon basin, which can generate sudden thunderstorm activity. Temperature and humidity variations can significantly impact aircraft performance, especially during takeoff and landing.
Notable Features
The airport features three runways with substantial length variations: Runway 03/21 at 6,004 feet, Runway 07/20 at only 108 feet, and the primary Runway 07/25 extending 9,186 feet. The significant runway length on 07/25 provides flexibility for large aircraft operations and supports the airport's role as a major regional transportation hub. The relatively low elevation of 54 feet means minimal terrain challenges for approach and departure procedures.
Approach Considerations
Runway 07/25's extended length makes it the preferred runway for most commercial and cargo operations. Pilots should be prepared for potential wind shifts given the airport's proximity to coastal and riverine environments. Standard instrument approach procedures will be applicable, with careful attention to local meteorological conditions characteristic of the Amazon region.
