KTVR by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
KTVR reported VFR in 83% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 279 flyable days a year. June is the most reliable month and December the least, with IFR or worse 11% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually a mix of low ceilings (under 1,000 ft 3% of hours) and low visibility (under 3 miles 3%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, runway 18 had the best headwind 54% of the time, runway 36 46%, and winds were calm 32% 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 65 days a year. 44% of storm hours fall in May, July and August, peaking in July when storms were in the air 2% of the time.
Fog was reported on about 63 days a year, and fog or mist on 207. November and December are the foggiest months, with fog in 12% of hours, against 6% in April.
Field elevation is 86 ft, but on a median summer afternoon the air performs like 2,071 ft, 1,985 ft higher. Plan for a longer takeoff roll and a weaker climb from June to August.
Winds were calm 24% of the time and averaged 5.0 kt overall. March is the windiest month (mean 7 kt) and July the calmest.
