Weather Briefing

MVFR

Jorge Jiménez Cantú National Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with overcast skies at 8,000 feet and 7 SM visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the south (170°) at 7 knots. Runway 22 is favored with a 4-knot headwind and 5-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is 7 SM. The ceiling is 2000 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 2,000 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 15°C (59°F) with a dewpoint of 11°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.
