KDET Runway 15/33 — Coleman A. Young Municipal Airport

Name: KDET Runway 15/33 wind climatology 2005–2025
Creator: ATIS Alerts

5,092 × 100 ft asphalt · true headings 143° / 323° · field elevation 624 ft

Runway 15/33 at Coleman A. Young Municipal Airport (KDET) in Detroit, MI is 5,092 ft long and 100 ft wide, asphalt, with true headings 143° and 323°. The FAA record lists ILS (CAT I) on runway 15. Over 2005–2025 the wind gave runway 15 the headwind 46% of the time and runway 33 54%, with a crosswind above 15 kt in 2.1% of wind hours. KDET has no digital ATIS, so the active runway is not known; the wind-favored end and the ATIS Alerts prediction are estimates.

ATIS Alerts Predicted Runway is an estimate from the TAF wind forecast, runway geometry (most headwind, crosswind penalised, tailwind over 5 kt avoided, longest runway breaks ties), the current stated configuration and any stated closures. Each row lists its reasons; “no runway favored” is a genuine answer under variable or light wind, never replaced by a guess. It is not an ATC assignment and does not know about noise abatement or traffic flow unless the recorded history shows them. TAF issued 0520Z (1:20 AM EDT).

An outage annotation is only ever a reading of the official text shown with it. Declared distances are not shown in this phase.

Land and hold short operations

LAHSO hold-short points and available landing distances on the FAA record, and whether the current D-ATIS reports LAHSO in effect.

No LAHSO hold-short point on the FAA record for this end.

Runway 33

No LAHSO hold-short point on the FAA record for this end.

This airport has no D-ATIS, so the current LAHSO state is not known here. Source: FAA NASR cycle 2026-10-01; D-ATIS text read by ATIS Alerts.

Runway 15/33 numbers are magnetic; the stored geometry and every wind calculation on this page are TRUE north, so they never need a variation correction. Magnetic headings use the FAA's published variation for this airport, 5.0°W (1980), the same value printed on the FAA airport diagram. Surface condition, treatment, weight bearing, thresholds and traffic pattern are from the FAA NASR record (cycle 2026-10-01); lighting, ILS and LAHSO are in their own sections above.

“Most wind-favored end” is meteorological analysis: the share of steady-wind hours (2005–2025) in which this end had the most headwind of every open runway end at KDET. It does not mean ATC selected the runway that often (parallel ends with the same heading share the credit equally). Observed runway use, where available, is the configuration-history section above.

IFR, thunderstorm (TS) and fog columns are airport-wide shares of hours; the crosswind and tailwind columns are specific to this runway. Prevailing = most common 45° wind sector among wind hours.

Runway 15/33 closure history

Kept per source with its provenance: D-ATIS-observed, NOTAM-observed and the FAA published baseline are never merged.

KDET has no D-ATIS, so there is no broadcast-observed closure record.

NOTAM observed · recorded since Sep 19, 2026 (no archive before that)

No closure NOTAM naming runway 15/33 has been received since the stream went live.

Published FAA baseline (NASR record)

Runway 15/33: Open on the published record — a baseline that does not reflect temporary closures or restrictions, not the current operational status.

Recent pilot reports involving runway 15/33

Official PIREPs that name this runway explicitly, past 6 hours.

No pilot report in the last 6 hours names runway 15/33 at KDET explicitly. Reports near the airport that do not name a runway are on the airport page.

Methodology and sources

Short version below; the full write-up is at Runway Intelligence methodology, and every launched airport is listed on the Runway Intelligence hub.

Active runwayscome first from the tower's TFDM (Terminal Flight Data Manager) airport configuration, received as structured data through the FAA SWIM Cloud Distribution Service at towers that have it; otherwise from the airport's D-ATIS text (community relay of the FAA broadcast) with an open, tested parser, and the broadcast text is always shown. Every change is recorded, so “recorded use” is what the facility stated, never an inference. ATIS Alerts is not an FAA product and this is not FAA data; SWIM content is for non-operational use.
Flowis the compass direction of the stated arrival ends (eight sectors, named only when every arrival end points within 30° of the others and clear of a sector edge); a tower's own configuration name is used when it carries a direction word. Stored separately from the runway sets.
Equipment, LAHSO and frequencies come from the FAA NASR 28-day subscription (cycle 2026-10-01): approach lights, visual glide slope, edge / centerline / touchdown-zone lights, REIL, ILS components with FAA status, RVR, markings, LAHSO hold-short points and available landing distances, and facility frequencies with their published sectorization. Outage annotations are readings of the NOTAM or D-ATIS text shown beside them. Blank FAA fields read “Not available”.
Wind components use the current METAR (aviationweather.gov) against TRUE runway headings from the OurAirports/FAA runway record.
Runway visual range, tower demand and traffic-management restrictions come from FAA SWIM: STDDS Airport Data (RVR and light settings, about 130 airports) and TFDM (15-minute runway demand, APREQ/MIT restrictions). Each block is stamped with its own time; none of it is an FAA product or a clearance.
Predicted runway scores each open end from the TAF wind (headwind, crosswind penalty, tailwind avoidance, longest-runway tie-break), excludes stated closures, and — once a wind sector has 24 h of recorded use — adjusts confidence by what the facility did under similar wind; every row lists its reasons. It does not model noise abatement or flow programs beyond what the record shows.
History thresholds: usage shares need 12 / 48 / 168 recorded hours for the 24-hour / 7-day / 30-day windows; a wind sector needs 24 h and 5 days; time-of-day needs 7 days and 20 h per daypart; flow shares need 48 h. Below a bar the module says so instead of showing a percentage.
Climatology: Iowa Environmental Mesonet ASOS archive, one observation per hour, 45° wind sectors, percentiles via t-digest; runway geometry is today's record applied to all years. Methodology v1.
PIREPs: official reports from aviationweather.gov are attached only when the text names this runway and the report is tied to KDET by identifier or by position within 15 NM. Approaches: FAA d-TPP metafile, current charting cycle; plates link to aeronav.faa.gov. No minimums are reproduced.
Data freshness: METAR and D-ATIS refresh every minute on this page; the D-ATIS recorder ran 0 min ago; usage rollups every 3 h; climatology through 2025-12-31.
