Weather Briefing
VFRDix-Sept Rosado Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 10,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east-northeast (60°) at 1 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 10000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 28°C (82°F) with a dewpoint of 26°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours.

The airport sits at an elevation of 76 feet above mean sea level, providing access to the Rio Grande do Norte state's western region.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect consistently excellent visual flight conditions, with 97.6% of METAR observations reporting VFR weather. The prevailing easterly winds average 9.7 knots, with occasional gusts up to 22 knots. Temperature variations are moderate, ranging from 22°C to 38°C, with an average of 29.3°C, ensuring stable atmospheric conditions for most of the year.
