Current pilot readout for KHWO

KHWO is currently VFR with winds from 040° at 6 knots, visibility 10+ statute miles, and no ceiling reported. the wind favors northeast-facing runway ends (01L, 01R, 10L, 10R). Density altitude is approximately 1,400 ft (field elevation 8 ft). KHWO does not publish a TAF. The nearest TAF station is KHWO, about 0 nm away.

KHWO by the numbers

What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.

93%
of daylight hours VFR, 2006 to 2025

KHWO reported VFR in 93% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 294 flyable days a year. July is the most reliable month and January the least, with IFR or worse 3% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually a mix of low ceilings (under 1,000 ft 1% of hours) and low visibility (under 3 miles 1%).

49%
of windy hours favor 10L, 10R

Over 20 years of hourly winds, the east-facing ends (10L, 10R) had the best headwind 49% of the time, the north-facing ends (01L, 01R) 21%, and winds were calm 18% of hours. Winds most often blow from the east. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in under 1% of hours.

78
thunderstorm days a year

Thunderstorms were reported on about 78 days a year. 61% of storm hours fall in July, August and September, peaking in July when storms were in the air 4% of the time.

1,799 ft
typical summer-afternoon density altitude

Field elevation is 8 ft, but on a median summer afternoon the air performs like 1,799 ft, 1,791 ft higher. Plan for a longer takeoff roll and a weaker climb from June to August.

10%
of hours with gusts

Gusts showed up in 10% of hours, typically 7 kt above the steady wind, and the strongest credible gust on record was 59 kt. April is the windiest month (mean 8 kt) and July 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.
