Weather Briefing
LIFRMountain Village Airport is currently reporting low IFR (LIFR) conditions with overcast skies at 300 feet and 2 SM visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south (180°) at 27 knots with gusts to 33 knots. Runway 20 is favored with a 25-knot headwind and 9-knot crosswind component (gusting to 11 knots crosswind). These are strong winds that may exceed crosswind limits for light aircraft.
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 very low at 300 feet AGL (overcast), well below circling minimums at most airports.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 10°C (50°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.
Pilot Recommendations
Current conditions require an instrument rating, IFR-equipped aircraft, and an IFR clearance. Check approach minimums carefully as conditions may be below CAT I ILS minimums. Gusty conditions may exceed demonstrated crosswind components for many general aviation aircraft. Check your aircraft's limitations. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours.

About Mountain Village Airport
Mountain Village Airport (PAMO/MOU) is located in Mountain Village, US at an elevation of 337 feet MSL. The airport has 1 runway (02/20), with the longest at 3,500 feet.
Weather Profile
PAMO is weather-challenged, with VFR conditions just 41.3% of the time across 9,873 observations. IFR/LIFR conditions are present 33.4% of the time, making an instrument rating essential for reliable access. Fog affects the airport in approximately 9.4% of observations, with visibility dropping below 3 statute miles 5.5% of the time.
Wind Patterns & Runway Selection
Prevailing winds at PAMO come from the N (0°) with an average speed of 11.6 knots and recorded gusts up to 44 knots. Calm winds are rare (1.7%), so crosswind considerations are a regular factor. Runway 02/20 offers the lowest average crosswind component at 7.9 knots, making it the preferred choice in typical wind conditions.
Seasonal Considerations
The best months for VFR operations are August, September, March, when clear skies are most prevalent. Temperatures at the field range from -31°C (-24°F) to 22°C (72°F), averaging -1.2°C (30°F). Cold weather operations require attention to aircraft preheating, de-icing, and cold-soaked fuel management. Altimeter settings typically range from 28.69 to 30.86 inHg (972-1045 hPa).
