KRVS by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
KRVS reported VFR in 83% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 282 flyable days a year. July is the most reliable month and December the least, with IFR or worse 10% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually low ceilings rather than fog (ceilings under 1,000 ft 4% of hours, visibility under 3 miles 2%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, the south-facing ends (19L, 19R) had the best headwind 43% of the time, the north-facing ends (01L, 01R) 29%, and winds were calm 31% of hours. Winds most often blow from the south. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in under 1% of hours.
Thunderstorms were reported on about 55 days a year. 46% of storm hours fall in May, June and July, peaking in May when storms were in the air 2% of the time.
Fog was reported on about 23 days a year, and fog or mist on 123. February and December are the foggiest months, with fog in 9% of hours, against 3% in July.
Field elevation is 638 ft, but on a median summer afternoon the air performs like 2,864 ft, 2,226 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 94 kt. April is the windiest month (mean 7 kt) and September the calmest.
