Weather Briefing
IFRMonterrey International Airport is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with overcast skies at 1,500 feet and 4 SM visibility. Note: This observation is 1.3 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east-southeast (120°) at 10 knots. Runway 12/30 is favored with a 10-knot headwind and 0-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 4 SM, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. The ceiling is 800 feet AGL (broken). Only precision approaches may be usable depending on minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 26°C (79°F) with a dewpoint of 20°C, indicating moderate moisture conditions.
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: Haze, Thunderstorm Rain, Mist. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 22:00Z and 01:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Mist between 10:00Z and 14:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are required. Verify that destination and alternate approach minimums are above current and forecast conditions.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Monterrey International Airport
Overview
Monterrey International Airport serves as a critical aviation hub in northeastern Mexico, located in the metropolitan area of Monterrey, Nuevo Leon. Situated at an elevation of 1278 ft mean sea level, the airport handles significant commercial and cargo traffic for the region's industrial center. Its strategic location supports transportation needs for one of Mexico's most economically important metropolitan areas.
Flying Conditions
The airport's elevation at 1278 ft MSL contributes to moderate atmospheric conditions typical of northern Mexican terrain. Pilots should anticipate potential thermal variations due to the region's semi-arid climate, which can impact aircraft performance, particularly during summer months. The airport's two substantial runways (12/30 at 9843 ft and 16/34 at 5909 ft) provide operational flexibility across different wind conditions.
Notable Features
Monterrey International Airport features two asphalt runways with significant lengths, enabling operations for a wide range of aircraft types. The airport's geographical coordinates at 25.778521, -100.106989 place it in a region characterized by surrounding mountainous terrain, which may introduce specific wind and approach considerations. Pilots should be prepared for potential terrain-influenced wind patterns and visibility variations.
Approach Considerations
With runways oriented at 12/30 and 16/34, the airport offers multiple approach options depending on prevailing wind conditions. The longer 12/30 runway at 9843 ft provides substantial landing and takeoff capabilities for larger aircraft. Approach planning should consider the airport's elevation and potential thermal effects on aircraft performance, particularly during warmer periods.
