Weather Briefing
VFRMayor General FAP Armando Revoredo Iglesias Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 5,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east-northeast (70°) at 7 knots. Runway 16/34 is favored with a 0-knot headwind and 7-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 2,500 ft, scattered at 5,000 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 22°C (72°F) with a dewpoint of 8°C, indicating relatively dry 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. Conditions are expected to fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast between 19:00Z and 22:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.
