KEVM by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
KEVM reported VFR in 71% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 218 flyable days a year. July is the most reliable month and December the least, with IFR or worse 26% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually low ceilings rather than fog (ceilings under 1,000 ft 11% of hours, visibility under 3 miles 6%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, runway 32 had the best headwind 25% of the time, runway 14 17%, and winds were calm 26% of hours. Winds most often blow from the west. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in 0% of hours.
Snow fell on about 94 days a year. From December to February KEVM was IFR or worse 20% of the time, against 10% from June to August.
Thunderstorms were reported on about 37 days a year. 63% of storm hours fall in June, July and September, peaking in June when storms were in the air 2% of the time.
Gusts showed up in 18% of hours, typically 7 kt above the steady wind, and the strongest credible gust on record was 49 kt. April is the windiest month (mean 6 kt) and August the calmest.
