KMVL by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
KMVL reported VFR in 74% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 238 flyable days a year. July is the most reliable month and December the least, with IFR or worse 14% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually fog and low visibility rather than low ceilings (visibility under 3 miles 8% of hours, ceilings under 1,000 ft 4%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, runway 01 had the best headwind 53% of the time, runway 19 47%, and winds were calm 51% of hours. Winds most often blow from the south. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in under 1% of hours.
Snow fell on about 96 days a year and freezing rain or drizzle on 5. From December to February KMVL was IFR or worse 13% of the time, against 10% from June to August.
Fog was reported on about 81 days a year, and fog or mist on 208. August and September are the foggiest months, with fog in 16% of hours, against 7% in April.
Gusts showed up in 11% of hours, typically 9 kt above the steady wind, and the strongest credible gust on record was 152 kt. March is the windiest month (mean 5 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | 4,200 ft | ASP | - | - |
| 19 | 4,200 ft | ASP | - | - |

“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.
