When conditions drop it is usually low ceilings rather than fog (ceilings under 1,000 ft 6% of hours, visibility under 3 miles 3%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, runway 18 had the best headwind 57% of the time, runway 36 43%, and winds were calm 10% of hours. Winds most often blow from the south. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in 1% of hours.
Thunderstorms were reported on about 54 days a year. 50% of storm hours fall in May, June and August, peaking in May when storms were in the air 2% of the time.
Snow fell on about 21 days a year and freezing rain or drizzle on 4. From December to February KOJC was IFR or worse 13% of the time, against 3% from June to August.
