Sky Harbor Seaplane Base (9Y5) Area Aviation Weather & Runway Winds

A current METAR is not available for 9Y5 right now.

Aviation weather near Sky Harbor Seaplane Base in Eveleth, MN, decoded from the nearest reporting station (KEVM): conditions and runway crosswinds.

Sky Harbor Seaplane Base (9Y5) is a seaplane base in Eveleth, MN. 9Y5 has no weather station of its own. Conditions here are decoded from KEVM, about 2 nm away, the nearest reporting station, and local conditions can differ. It has 3 physical runways (03/21, 07/25, 14/32), the longest 6,500 ft. The nearest TAF is issued for KHIB.

Runway wind check

Estimated head/tailwind and crosswind for each runway end from the current reported wind.

Current wind is calm: calm wind is not a factor for runway selection, and with no wind there is no head/tail or crosswind component to compute. Live numbers return automatically once a report includes a wind direction.

“Current use” is what the facilitystates; wind components are arithmetic on the current METAR against TRUE headings; status reflects NOTAMs received through SWIM, the tower's TFDM record and the D-ATIS — a runway reads “Open” only with a complete NOTAM picture.
