Weather Briefing

VFR

Adolfo López Mateos International Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with overcast skies at 7,000 feet and 8 SM visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the north (350°) at 5 knots. Runway 33 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 2-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 8 SM. The ceiling is 3000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 3,000 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 11°C (52°F) with a dewpoint of 9°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 21 hours. IFR conditions are expected to persist or develop. An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are recommended. Expected weather includes: Light Thunderstorm Rain, Thunderstorm Rain, Haze, Mist. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 04:00Z and 06:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Mist between 10:00Z and 14:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 20:00Z and 00:00Z.

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 Adolfo López Mateos International Airport

Overview

Adolfo López Mateos International Airport serves the Toluca metropolitan area, located approximately 40 miles west of Mexico City. Positioned at a high elevation of 8,466 feet MSL, this medium-sized airport is a significant transportation hub for central Mexico. The airport supports various aviation operations with its single substantial runway measuring 13,780 feet in length.

Flying Conditions

Pilots can expect predominantly visual flight conditions, with 55% of observations reporting VFR and an additional 32.7% in marginal VFR. Winter months (October through December) offer the most consistent VFR weather, with reduced visibility and potential fog occurring in approximately 15.4% of observations. Temperature variations range from 0°C to 24°C, with an average of 11.5°C, requiring careful consideration of density altitude effects.

Notable Features

The airport's high elevation at 8,466 feet presents significant performance considerations for aircraft operations. Prevailing winds from the northwest (315°) average 5.2 knots, with occasional gusts up to 36 knots. Calm wind conditions occur in 30.9% of observations, which can impact runway selection and approach planning. The single runway (15/33) experiences favorable wind alignment in 100% of observations, with an average crosswind component of just 3 knots.

Approach Considerations

Runway 15/33 provides consistent wind alignment, making it a reliable approach option for most wind conditions. Visibility averages 5.6 statute miles, with 13.7% of observations showing reduced visibility below 3 miles. Pilots should anticipate potential fog and lower visibility, particularly during transitional seasons. The long runway length of 13,780 feet offers substantial landing and takeoff performance margins at the airport's high elevation.
