KFLL by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
The FAA issued 19 ground stops and 1 ground delay program for FLL between October 2025 and October 2026, affecting 19 days. Thunderstorms were the most common reason (15 of 20). A typical ground stop lasted about 1 h 10 min.
KFLL reported VFR in 92% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 295 flyable days a year. July is the most reliable month and January the least, with IFR or worse 2% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually a mix of low ceilings (under 1,000 ft under 1% of hours) and low visibility (under 3 miles 1%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, the east-facing ends (10L, 10R) had the best headwind 69% of the time, the west-facing ends (28L, 28R) 31%, and winds were calm 10% of hours. Winds most often blow from the east. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in 1% of hours.
Thunderstorms were reported on about 82 days a year. 59% of storm hours fall in June, July and August, peaking in July when storms were in the air 4% of the time.
FLL departures left within 15 minutes of schedule 71% of the time across 90,645 flights, June 2025 to May 2026. Before 9 AM departures did best (90%) and after 9 PM did worst (50%).
Over the last 30 days of recorded D-ATIS broadcasts, KFLL ran east flow 70% of the time and mixed configuration 23%. Runway 10L was named for arrivals most often (89% of recorded hours), and the configuration changed 120 times.
