Weather Briefing

MVFR

Brampton-Caledon Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 2,100 feet and 15 SM visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the north-northwest (340°) at 14 knots. Runway 33 is favored with a 14-knot headwind and 2-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 15 SM. The ceiling is 1400 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 8°C (46°F) with a dewpoint of 5°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.

Forecast Outlook

The TAF forecast covers the next 30 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 Rain, Light Drizzle, Light Rain, FCST. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 3 to 15 knots. Temporary VFR conditions are forecast between 12:00Z and 14:00Z. There is a 40% probability of IFR conditions between 12:00Z and 14:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Light Rain between 14:00Z and 23:00Z.

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.

About Brampton-Caledon Airport

Overview

Brampton-Caledon Airport (CNC3) is a medium-sized airport located in the Greater Toronto Area of Ontario, Canada. Situated at an elevation of 935 feet mean sea level, the airport provides critical infrastructure for general aviation and regional transportation in the Peel Region.

Flying Conditions

The airport's mid-latitude location suggests variable weather conditions typical of southern Ontario, with potential for significant seasonal temperature and wind variations. At 935 feet MSL, pilots can expect standard atmospheric pressures and moderate terrain interactions that may influence local wind patterns.

Notable Features

The airport features two distinct runways: Runway 08/26 is a 2,500-foot asphalt surface, while Runway 15/33 is a 3,500-foot concrete/asphalt/petroleum (COP) runway. The dual runway configuration provides operational flexibility for different wind conditions and aircraft types operating in the region.

Approach Considerations

With runways oriented at 08/26 and 15/33, pilots should anticipate potential crosswind scenarios and be prepared to select the most appropriate runway based on current wind direction and speed. The longer 15/33 runway offers more landing and takeoff options for various aircraft categories, potentially providing enhanced operational capabilities during challenging wind conditions.
