KGAG by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
KGAG reported VFR in 88% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 309 flyable days a year. July is the most reliable month and February the least, with IFR or worse 9% 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 2%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, runway 17 had the best headwind 65% of the time, runway 35 35%, and winds were calm 10% of hours. Winds most often blow from the south. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in 1% of hours.
Thunderstorms were reported on about 48 days a year. 56% of storm hours fall in May, June and August, peaking in June when storms were in the air 2% of the time.
Snow fell on about 12 days a year and freezing rain or drizzle on 5. From December to February KGAG was IFR or worse 8% of the time, against 2% from June to August.
Field elevation is 2,223 ft, but on a median summer afternoon the air performs like 4,833 ft, 2,610 ft higher. Plan for a longer takeoff roll and a weaker climb from June to August.
Gusts showed up in 25% of hours, typically 8 kt above the steady wind, and the strongest credible gust on record was 70 kt. April is the windiest month (mean 12 kt) and August the calmest.
