Wind Analysis
Winds are from the north (360°) at 2 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 10 SM. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 2,000 ft, scattered at 10,000 ft, scattered at 22,000 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 15°C (59°F) with a dewpoint of 13°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. Conditions are expected to fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions. Expected weather includes: Haze, Thunderstorm Rain, Light Rain. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast between 10:00Z and 14:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 21:00Z and 01:00Z.
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.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Benito Juárez International Airport
Overview
Benito Juárez International Airport serves as Mexico City's primary international airport, handling major commercial and cargo operations. Located at 19.435137, -99.071328 with a high elevation of 7,316 feet mean sea level, this large airport is a critical aviation hub in central Mexico.
Flying Conditions
The airport's high elevation at 7,316 feet MSL significantly impacts aircraft performance and requires careful flight planning for density altitude considerations. Ciudad de México's mountainous terrain and high altitude create unique atmospheric conditions that pilots must account for during all phases of flight.
Notable Features
The airport features two substantial parallel runways: 05L/23R at 12,966 feet and 05R/23L at 12,795 feet, both constructed with asphalt surfaces. These long runways accommodate wide-body international aircraft and provide operational flexibility for different wind conditions and aircraft types.
Approach Considerations
Runway orientation at 05/23 suggests prevailing wind considerations for approach and departure procedures. The substantial runway lengths (over 12,700 feet) provide adequate landing and takeoff margins, which is critical given the airport's high elevation and potential performance challenges for aircraft.
