KZZV by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
KZZV reported VFR in 77% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 244 flyable days a year. April is the most reliable month and January the least, with IFR or worse 12% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually a mix of low ceilings (under 1,000 ft 5% of hours) and low visibility (under 3 miles 4%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, runway 22 had the best headwind 40% of the time, runway 34 24%, and winds were calm 28% of hours. Winds most often blow from the south. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in under 1% of hours.
Snow fell on about 39 days a year and freezing rain or drizzle on 4. From December to February KZZV was IFR or worse 12% of the time, against 7% from June to August.
Thunderstorms were reported on about 43 days a year. 66% of storm hours fall in June, July and August, peaking in June when storms were in the air 2% of the time.
Field elevation is 900 ft, but on a median summer afternoon the air performs like 2,451 ft, 1,551 ft higher. Plan for a longer takeoff roll and a weaker climb from June to August.
Winds were calm 25% of the time and averaged 5.0 kt overall. January is the windiest month (mean 6 kt) and August the calmest.

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.
