Weather Briefing
VFRGeneral Bartolome Salom International Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with overcast skies at 10,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility. Note: This observation is 1.6 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Wind data is not available.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 10000 feet AGL (overcast), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 25°C (77°F) with a dewpoint of 22°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 24 hours. Conditions are expected to remain MVFR throughout the forecast period. Expected weather includes: Drizzle. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Drizzle between 04:00Z and 08:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Drizzle between 12:00Z and 16:00Z.
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 forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About General Bartolome Salom International Airport
Overview
General Bartolome Salom International Airport serves Puerto Cabello, a significant maritime city in Venezuela. Located at coordinates 10.480500, -68.072998, this medium-sized airport supports regional transportation needs with its single runway configuration. The airport is positioned near the Caribbean coast, facilitating connections for commercial and potentially military aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
Situated at 32 feet mean sea level, the airport experiences typical Caribbean coastal weather patterns characterized by warm temperatures and potential maritime atmospheric variations. Pilots should anticipate potential sea breeze influences and occasional coastal weather transitions. The low elevation suggests minimal terrain-related atmospheric complexity for approach and departure procedures.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (10/28) measuring 6,970 feet with an asphalt surface, providing adequate length for most medium-sized aircraft operations. Its coastal location near Puerto Cabello implies potential wind variability and maritime meteorological conditions that could impact flight planning. The geographic positioning suggests potential crosswind scenarios during approach and departure phases.
Approach Considerations
Runway 10/28 offers flexibility for aircraft operations based on prevailing wind conditions. The 6,970-foot asphalt runway provides sufficient length for most regional aircraft types, enabling relatively straightforward approach and departure procedures. Pilots should conduct standard terrain and wind assessments consistent with coastal airport environments when planning their operational strategy.
