Weather Briefing
VFRMinatitlán/Coatzacoalcos International Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 21,000 feet and 10 SM visibility. Note: This observation is 5.2 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the north-northeast (20°) at 5 knots. Runway 01/19 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 1-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 10 SM. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: scattered at 21,000 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 24°C (75°F) with a dewpoint of 22°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 24 hours. The forecast shows a transition between VFR and IFR conditions. Pilots should monitor the forecast closely and have an alternate airport plan. Expected weather includes: Haze, Mist, Vicinity Fog. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Mist, Vicinity Fog between 12:00Z and 16:00Z.
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.

About Minatitlán/Coatzacoalcos International Airport
Overview
Minatitlán/Coatzacoalcos International Airport serves the industrial region of southeastern Veracruz, Mexico, located near the important petroleum and petrochemical zones of Pemex. The airport is situated in Cosoleacaque at a low elevation of 36 feet mean sea level, providing access to the Gulf Coast industrial corridor. As a medium-sized international airport, it supports both commercial and regional aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences predominantly marginal VFR conditions, with 54.6% of observations showing MVFR and 41.7% true VFR conditions. Temperature remains consistently warm, averaging 25.2°C with a range between 16°C and 32°C. Wind patterns are characterized by northerly prevailing winds at an average of 8.5 knots, with occasional strong gusts up to 56 knots and calm conditions occurring 51.4% of the time.
Notable Features
The single runway 01/19 is 6,890 feet long with an asphalt surface, positioned to maximize wind alignment. Geographic proximity to the Gulf of Mexico likely influences local meteorological conditions, with potential for rapid weather changes. Visibility typically remains good, averaging 7.2 statute miles, though occasional reduced visibility can occur, with 2.9% of observations showing conditions below 3 miles.
Approach Considerations
Runway 01/19 demonstrates excellent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind conditions and an average crosswind of only 3 knots. January, October, and November represent the most consistently favorable VFR months for operations. Pilots should be prepared for potential fog events, which occur in approximately 1.1% of observations, and monitor local weather patterns closely during approach and departure.
