KMVY by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
The FAA issued no ground stop or ground delay program for MVY in the 12 months to October 2026. Delays here come from the airlines or from programs at other airports rather than from MVY's own airspace.
KMVY reported VFR in 72% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 237 flyable days a year. November is the most reliable month and July the least, with IFR or worse 27% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually low ceilings rather than fog (ceilings under 1,000 ft 14% of hours, visibility under 3 miles 8%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, runway 24 had the best headwind 37% of the time, runway 33 30%, and winds were calm 10% of hours. Winds most often blow from the southwest. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in under 1% of hours.
Fog was reported on about 85 days a year, and fog or mist on 198. June and July are the foggiest months, with fog in 22% of hours, against 11% in November.
MVY departures left within 15 minutes of schedule 76% of the time across 1,073 flights, June 2025 to May 2026. 9 AM to noon departures did best (87%) and 3 to 6 PM did worst (70%).
Snow fell on about 26 days a year and freezing rain or drizzle on 2. From December to February KMVY was IFR or worse 15% of the time, against 23% from June to August.

“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.
