Weather Briefing

IFR

Engineer Juan Guillermo Villasana National Airport is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with overcast skies at 1,000 feet and 2 SM visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the north (10°) at 4 knots.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is reduced to 2 SM. IFR conditions prevail and an instrument clearance is required for operations in controlled airspace. The ceiling is 1000 feet AGL (overcast), placing conditions in the MVFR category.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 13°C (55°F) with a dewpoint of 12°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 23 hours. IFR conditions are expected to persist or develop. An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are recommended. Expected weather includes: Mist, Haze, Thunderstorm Rain. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 4 to 15 knots. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 22:00Z and 02:00Z.

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.
