KMIE by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
KMIE reported VFR in 76% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 243 flyable days a year. July is the most reliable month and January the least, with IFR or worse 18% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually low ceilings rather than fog (ceilings under 1,000 ft 6% of hours, visibility under 3 miles 4%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, runway 21 had the best headwind 39% of the time, runway 32 29%, and winds were calm 13% of hours. Winds most often blow from the west. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in 1% of hours.
Snow fell on about 40 days a year and freezing rain or drizzle on 5. From December to February KMIE was IFR or worse 16% of the time, against 4% from June to August.
Thunderstorms were reported on about 41 days a year. 57% 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 937 ft, but on a median summer afternoon the air performs like 2,535 ft, 1,598 ft higher. Plan for a longer takeoff roll and a weaker climb from June to August.
Gusts showed up in 17% of hours, typically 8 kt above the steady wind, and the strongest credible gust on record was 61 kt. January is the windiest month (mean 9 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.
