Narrative:

Prior to pushback ATIS reported WX as 94 degrees, wind 200-05, at abq. However on taxiout the active runway was switched from 26 to 08 with wind 080-10, temperature 97 degrees. Allowable takeoff gross weight had been computed at 97800 pounds for improved climb runway 26 with an actual weight of 97400 pounds. With the new runway and temperature, the allowable takeoff gross weight was now 94000 pounds. I advised the captain and he elected to continue. Takeoff was uneventful.

Original NASA ASRS Text

Title: ACR MLG EXCEEDED ALLOWABLE GROSS WEIGHT ON TKOF.

Narrative: PRIOR TO PUSHBACK ATIS RPTED WX AS 94 DEGS, WIND 200-05, AT ABQ. HOWEVER ON TAXIOUT THE ACTIVE RWY WAS SWITCHED FROM 26 TO 08 WITH WIND 080-10, TEMP 97 DEGS. ALLOWABLE TKOF GROSS WT HAD BEEN COMPUTED AT 97800 LBS FOR IMPROVED CLB RWY 26 WITH AN ACTUAL WT OF 97400 LBS. WITH THE NEW RWY AND TEMP, THE ALLOWABLE TKOF GROSS WT WAS NOW 94000 LBS. I ADVISED THE CAPT AND HE ELECTED TO CONTINUE. TKOF WAS UNEVENTFUL.
