Weather Briefing
LIFRGustavo Rizo Airport is currently reporting low IFR (LIFR) conditions with overcast skies at 3,600 feet and 0.4 km visibility. Note: This observation is 5006.8 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the northeast (40°) at 6 knots. Runway 34 is favored with a 3-knot headwind and 5-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is severely reduced to 0.4 km, likely due to fog, mist, or precipitation. Special VFR or an IFR clearance may be required. The ceiling is 3600 feet AGL (overcast), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 25°C (77°F) with a dewpoint of 24°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. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours.

About Gustavo Rizo Airport
Overview
Gustavo Rizo Airport serves the municipal area of Baracoa in Cuba, positioned at coordinates 20.365299, -74.506203. As a medium-sized airport situated at 26 feet above mean sea level, it provides essential aviation infrastructure for the northeastern region of the country. The airport supports regional transportation and connectivity for this coastal Cuban municipality.
Flying Conditions
Located in a tropical maritime environment, Gustavo Rizo Airport experiences consistent warm temperatures and potential maritime weather influences. Pilots should anticipate potential wind variations given the airport's coastal positioning. The single runway (16/34) measuring 6,070 feet in length offers adequate operational capacity for medium-sized aircraft.
Notable Features
The concrete runway (CON) indicates a robust surface capable of handling various aircraft types. Its geographical location near the coastline suggests potential exposure to maritime wind patterns and possible crosswind conditions during approach and departure. The relatively low elevation of 26 feet MSL indicates minimal terrain complexity in the immediate airport vicinity.
Approach Considerations
Runway 16/34's significant length of 6,070 feet provides flexibility for different aircraft categories and operational requirements. Pilots should be prepared for potential wind shifts given the airport's coastal positioning, with careful attention to crosswind components during approach and landing. Standard instrument approach procedures would be recommended for consistent navigation.
