KGEZ by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
KGEZ reported VFR in 77% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 251 flyable days a year. June is the most reliable month and December the least, with IFR or worse 14% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually a mix of low ceilings (under 1,000 ft 5% of hours) and low visibility (under 3 miles 4%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, runway 19 had the best headwind 36% of the time, runway 27 26%, and winds were calm 12% of hours. Winds most often blow from the south. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in under 1% of hours.
Snow fell on about 33 days a year and freezing rain or drizzle on 4. From December to February KGEZ was IFR or worse 13% of the time, against 5% from June to August.
Thunderstorms were reported on about 45 days a year. 55% of storm hours fall in June, July and August, peaking in June when storms were in the air 2% of the time.
Field elevation is 802 ft, but on a median summer afternoon the air performs like 2,476 ft, 1,674 ft higher. Plan for a longer takeoff roll and a weaker climb from June to August.
Gusts showed up in 11% of hours, typically 8 kt above the steady wind, and the strongest credible gust on record was 59 kt. April is the windiest month (mean 9 kt) and August the calmest.
