KILN by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
KILN reported VFR in 75% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 239 flyable days a year. June is the most reliable month and January the least, with IFR or worse 16% 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 5%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, the southwest-facing ends (22L, 22R) had the best headwind 63% of the time, the northeast-facing ends (04L, 04R) 37%, and winds were calm 13% of hours. Winds most often blow from the west. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in 2% of hours.
Snow fell on about 37 days a year and freezing rain or drizzle on 6. From December to February KILN was IFR or worse 15% of the time, against 6% from June to August.
Thunderstorms were reported on about 50 days a year. 60% of storm hours fall in June, July and August, peaking in July when storms were in the air 2% of the time.
Field elevation is 1,077 ft, but on a median summer afternoon the air performs like 2,663 ft, 1,586 ft higher. Plan for a longer takeoff roll and a weaker climb from June to August.
Gusts showed up in 12% of hours, typically 8 kt above the steady wind, and the strongest credible gust on record was 69 kt. January is the windiest month (mean 9 kt) and August the calmest.
