Weather Briefing
MVFRGeneral Mariano Matamoros International Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 1,500 feet and 9 SM visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the north-northwest (330°) at 8 knots with gusts to 18 knots. Runway 03/21 is favored with a 4-knot headwind and 7-knot crosswind component (gusting to 16 knots crosswind).
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 9 SM. The ceiling is 1500 feet AGL (broken), placing conditions in the MVFR category. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 1,500 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 24°C (75°F) with a dewpoint of 15°C, indicating moderate moisture conditions. High temperatures at this elevation may result in significant density altitude effects. Pilots should calculate density altitude and adjust performance expectations accordingly.
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: Thunderstorm Rain. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 21:00Z and 01:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 03:00Z and 06:00Z.
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 forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About General Mariano Matamoros International Airport
Overview
General Mariano Matamoros International Airport serves Temixco, Mexico, as a medium-sized airport situated at 4,277 feet mean sea level. Located at coordinates 18.833922, -99.261818, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region, supporting both civilian and potentially military operations with its substantial 9,180-foot asphalted runway.
Flying Conditions
Historical meteorological data indicates predominantly favorable VFR conditions, with 73.4% of observations reporting visual flight rules. Pilots can expect stable weather, particularly during winter months (January, November, December), with an average temperature of 22.9°C and a moderate temperature range between 11°C and 31°C. Wind conditions are generally mild, with a prevailing southerly direction at an average of 4 knots and calm periods occurring 34.4% of the time.
Notable Features
The airport's elevated terrain at 4,277 feet MSL presents potential performance considerations for aircraft operations. Runway 03/21 offers excellent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind coverage and a minimal average crosswind of 2.5 knots. Visibility typically remains good, averaging 7.2 statute miles, with rare occurrences of limited visibility (below 3SM in only 1.8% of observations).
Approach Considerations
Runway 03/21 is the primary operational surface, offering a substantial 9,180-foot asphalted runway that accommodates a variety of aircraft. Prevailing southerly winds suggest potential preference for approaches from the south, though the runway's orientation provides flexibility. Pilots should anticipate generally stable atmospheric conditions, with IFR conditions occurring in only 2.5% of observations and low IFR (LIFR) present in just 1.1% of cases.
