KSSF by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
KSSF reported VFR in 78% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 279 flyable days a year. August is the most reliable month and February the least, with IFR or worse 13% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually low ceilings rather than fog (ceilings under 1,000 ft 6% of hours, visibility under 3 miles 2%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, runway 14 had the best headwind 45% of the time, runway 10 30%, and winds were calm 21% of hours. Winds most often blow from the southeast. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in under 1% of hours.
Thunderstorms were reported on about 38 days a year. 49% of storm hours fall in April, May and June, peaking in May when storms were in the air 2% of the time.
Fog was reported on about 22 days a year, and fog or mist on 120. February and December are the foggiest months, with fog in 12% of hours, against 1% in August.
Field elevation is 578 ft, but on a median summer afternoon the air performs like 3,083 ft, 2,505 ft higher. Plan for a longer takeoff roll and a weaker climb from June to August.
Gusts showed up in 14% of hours, typically 8 kt above the steady wind, and the strongest credible gust on record was 83 kt. May is the windiest month (mean 7 kt) and September the calmest.
