Current pilot readout for KFFC
KFFC is currently VFR with winds from 040° at 6 knots, visibility 10+ statute miles, and no ceiling reported. Density altitude is approximately 1,600 ft (field elevation 808 ft). KFFC does not publish a TAF. The nearest TAF station is KATL, about 18 nm away.
KFFC by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
KFFC reported VFR in 79% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 267 flyable days a year. April 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 7% of hours, visibility under 3 miles 4%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, runway 31 had the best headwind 59% of the time, runway 13 41%, and winds were calm 53% of hours. Winds most often blow from the northwest. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in under 1% of hours.
Thunderstorms were reported on about 59 days a year. 60% of storm hours fall in June, July and August, peaking in July when storms were in the air 3% of the time.
Fog was reported on about 40 days a year, and fog or mist on 215. August and December are the foggiest months, with fog in 17% of hours, against 10% in April.
Field elevation is 808 ft, but on a median summer afternoon the air performs like 2,700 ft, 1,892 ft higher. Plan for a longer takeoff roll and a weaker climb from June to August.
Winds were calm 43% of the time and averaged 3.5 kt overall. January is the windiest month (mean 5 kt) and August the calmest.

“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.
