KHZY by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
KHZY reported VFR in 74% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 223 flyable days a year. July is the most reliable month and January the least, with IFR or worse 20% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually a mix of low ceilings (under 1,000 ft 6% of hours) and low visibility (under 3 miles 6%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, runway 27 had the best headwind 68% of the time, runway 09 32%, and winds were calm 23% of hours. Winds most often blow from the south. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in 1% of hours.
Snow fell on about 67 days a year and freezing rain or drizzle on 5. From December to February KHZY was IFR or worse 18% of the time, against 5% from June to August.
Fog was reported on about 48 days a year, and fog or mist on 207. January and December are the foggiest months, with fog in 17% of hours, against 8% in April.
Gusts showed up in 15% of hours, typically 8 kt above the steady wind, and the strongest credible gust on record was 53 kt. January is the windiest month (mean 8 kt) and August the calmest.

Runway wind check
Estimated head/tailwind and crosswind for each runway end from the current reported wind.
Current wind is calm: calm wind is not a factor for runway selection, and with no wind there is no head/tail or crosswind component to compute. Live numbers return automatically once a report includes a wind direction.
| Runway | Length | Surface | Head / Tail | Crosswind |

“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.
