Weather Briefing

IFR

Bromont (Roland Désourdy) Airport is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with overcast skies at 900 feet and 3 SM visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the north (360°) at 12 knots. Runway 05/23 is favored with a 8-knot headwind and 9-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 3 SM, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. The ceiling is 500 feet AGL (broken). Only precision approaches may be usable depending on minimums.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 11°C (52°F) with a dewpoint of 10°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. 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, Mist, FCST, FCST. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Light Rain, Mist between 00:00Z and 13:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are required. Verify that destination and alternate approach minimums are above current and forecast conditions. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours.

This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Bromont (Roland Désourdy) Airport

Overview

Bromont (Roland Désourdy) Airport serves the Montérégie region of Quebec, located approximately 45 kilometers southeast of Montreal. As a medium airport with two distinct runways, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for general aviation, training, and recreational flying in southwestern Quebec.

Flying Conditions

Situated at 375 feet mean sea level, the airport experiences typical southern Quebec seasonal variations with potential wind and visibility challenges. The airport's dual runway configuration (05/23 paved and 05R/23L grass) offers pilots flexibility in handling different wind conditions and surface preferences.

Notable Features

The airport's geographic coordinates (45.290798, -72.741402) place it in a terrain that transitions between the St. Lawrence Lowlands and the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. The 5000-foot asphalt runway (05/23) provides substantial length for most general aviation and training aircraft, while the 3200-foot grass runway offers alternative landing options.

Approach Considerations

Runway 05/23 appears to be the primary runway given its asphalt surface and longer length, which would likely be preferred for most aircraft operations. Pilots should anticipate potential crosswind scenarios given the airport's location and dual runway configuration, and be prepared to select the most appropriate runway based on current wind conditions.
