Weather Briefing

MVFR

La Coloma Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 1,500 feet and 9 km visibility. Note: This observation is 2207.1 hours old and conditions may have changed.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the east (100°) at 5 knots. Runway 07/25 is favored with a 4-knot headwind and 3-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 9 km. The ceiling is 1500 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 23°C (73°F) with a dewpoint of 21°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.

Pilot Recommendations

VFR pilots should exercise caution. Consider filing IFR if instrument rated, or postponing the flight if conditions are expected to deteriorate further. 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.

About La Coloma Airport

Overview

La Coloma Airport serves the Pinar del Rio province in western Cuba, situated at an elevation of 131 feet above mean sea level. As a medium-sized airport with a single asphalt runway measuring 6,562 feet long, it supports regional aviation operations in this agricultural region of Cuba.

Flying Conditions

The airport's coastal location near 22.3361° N latitude suggests potential maritime weather influences with possible wind shear and thermal variations. Pilots should anticipate potential crosswind conditions on the 07/25 runway, which runs approximately east-west and may experience wind shifts typical of Caribbean coastal environments.

Notable Features

La Coloma Airport is positioned in a relatively flat terrain region of western Cuba, with no immediately apparent significant elevation changes around the airport environment. The runway's substantial 6,562-foot length provides adequate landing and takeoff capabilities for medium-sized aircraft operating in this regional transportation network.

Approach Considerations

Runway 07/25 offers flexibility for approaches based on prevailing wind conditions, with the runway orientation allowing for headwind landings from either direction. Pilots should conduct standard terrain and wind assessments during pre-flight planning, paying particular attention to potential maritime weather patterns that could influence approach and departure procedures.
