KCRG by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
KCRG reported VFR in 85% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 266 flyable days a year. July is the most reliable month and December the least, with IFR or worse 16% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually low ceilings rather than fog (ceilings under 1,000 ft 4% of hours, visibility under 3 miles 3%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, runway 05 had the best headwind 26% of the time, runway 23 26%, and winds were calm 23% of hours. Winds most often blow from the east. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in under 1% of hours.
Thunderstorms were reported on about 73 days a year. 65% of storm hours fall in June, July and August, peaking in July when storms were in the air 4% of the time.
Fog was reported on about 49 days a year, and fog or mist on 167. February and December are the foggiest months, with fog in 13% of hours, against 3% in July.
Field elevation is 41 ft, but on a median summer afternoon the air performs like 1,789 ft, 1,748 ft higher. Plan for a longer takeoff roll and a weaker climb from June to August.
Gusts showed up in 12% of hours, typically 8 kt above the steady wind, and the strongest credible gust on record was 61 kt. April is the windiest month (mean 7 kt) and August the calmest.
