KLNR by the numbers

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

74%
of daylight hours VFR, 2006 to 2025

KLNR reported VFR in 74% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 244 flyable days a year. July is the most reliable month and December the least, with IFR or worse 17% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually fog and low visibility rather than low ceilings (visibility under 3 miles 7% of hours, ceilings under 1,000 ft 4%).

37%
of windy hours favor runway 27

Over 20 years of hourly winds, runway 27 had the best headwind 37% of the time, runway 09 30%, and winds were calm 25% of hours. Winds most often blow from the east. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in under 1% of hours.

46
snow days a year

Snow fell on about 46 days a year and freezing rain or drizzle on 3. From December to February KLNR was IFR or worse 15% of the time, against 8% from June to August.

70
fog days a year

Fog was reported on about 70 days a year, and fog or mist on 194. January and December are the foggiest months, with fog in 19% of hours, against 8% in May.

12%
of hours with gusts

Gusts showed up in 12% 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 8 kt) and August 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.
