Weather Briefing
VFRJuan Manuel Gálvez International Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with few clouds at 2,600 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the north-northeast (20°) at 5 knots. Runway 07/25 is favored with a 3-knot headwind and 4-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 2,600 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 27°C (81°F) with a dewpoint of 23°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 24 hours. Conditions are expected to remain VFR throughout the forecast period.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight.

About Juan Manuel Gálvez International Airport
Overview
Juan Manuel Gálvez International Airport serves Coxen Hole, Honduras, located on the island of Roatán in the Caribbean. As a medium-sized airport with a single runway measuring 7,349 feet, it provides critical air transportation infrastructure for this regional destination. The airport sits at a low elevation of 39 feet mean sea level, facilitating relatively straightforward operational conditions.
Flying Conditions
Weather observations indicate predominantly favorable Visual Flight Rules (VFR) conditions, with 88.5% of recorded periods supporting clear flying. The prevailing wind from the east (90 degrees) averages 7.9 knots, creating consistent and predictable wind patterns. Temperature remains stable, averaging 27.4°C with a moderate range between 20°C and 34°C, which supports stable atmospheric conditions for most of the year.
Notable Features
The airport's runway 07/25 demonstrates excellent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind conditions. Crosswinds are minimal, averaging just 3.8 knots, which contributes to more comfortable landing and takeoff experiences. The airport's low elevation and island location suggest potential maritime meteorological influences that pilots should monitor during preflight planning.
Approach Considerations
September, October, and December represent the best months for visual flying, offering the most consistent meteorological conditions. The asphalt runway provides good surface characteristics, and the consistently high visibility (averaging 10 statute miles) supports reliable approach and landing procedures. Pilots should anticipate east-southeast wind conditions when planning arrivals and departures.
