KCIN by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
KCIN reported VFR in 79% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 261 flyable days a year. June is the most reliable month and December the least, with IFR or worse 18% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually a mix of low ceilings (under 1,000 ft 7% of hours) and low visibility (under 3 miles 5%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, runway 31 had the best headwind 35% of the time, runway 13 25%, and winds were calm 14% of hours. Winds most often blow from the south. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in under 1% of hours.
Snow fell on about 42 days a year. From December to February KCIN was IFR or worse 16% of the time, against 4% from June to August.
Fog was reported on about 28 days a year, and fog or mist on 117. January and December are the foggiest months, with fog in 9% of hours, against 3% in June.
Field elevation is 1,204 ft, but on a median summer afternoon the air performs like 2,892 ft, 1,688 ft higher. Plan for a longer takeoff roll and a weaker climb from June to August.
Gusts showed up in 22% of hours, typically 7 kt above the steady wind, and the strongest credible gust on record was 69 kt. April is the windiest month (mean 12 kt) and August the calmest.
