KOLG by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
KOLG reported VFR in 72% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 234 flyable days a year. June is the most reliable month and December the least, with IFR or worse 22% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually low ceilings rather than fog (ceilings under 1,000 ft 11% of hours, visibility under 3 miles 5%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, runway 01 had the best headwind 50% of the time, runway 19 50%, and winds were calm 25% of hours. Winds most often blow from the south. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in under 1% of hours.
Seasonal hazards are rare at KOLG: thunderstorms on about 0 days a year, fog on 0 and snow on 0. Wind is the main variable, with gusts in 14% of hours.
Gusts showed up in 14% of hours, typically 7 kt above the steady wind, and the strongest credible gust on record was 43 kt. April is the windiest month (mean 6 kt) and July the calmest.
Sources: hourly observations 2006 to 2025 and the per-runway wind climatology 2006 to 2025. Historical summaries, not a forecast: check the current METAR, TAF and a briefing before flight.

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.

“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.
