PAEG by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
PAEG reported VFR in 88% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 235 flyable days a year. May is the most reliable month and November the least, with IFR or worse 9% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually fog and low visibility rather than low ceilings (visibility under 3 miles 4% of hours, ceilings under 1,000 ft 2%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, runway 07 had the best headwind 50% of the time, runway 25 50%, and winds were calm 61% of hours. Winds most often blow from the east-southeast. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in under 1% of hours.
Snow fell on about 79 days a year and freezing rain or drizzle on 1. From December to February PAEG was IFR or worse 7% of the time, against 3% from June to August.
Fog was reported on about 21 days a year, and fog or mist on 89. September and October are the foggiest months, with fog in 6% of hours, against 1% in May.
Gusts showed up in 12% of hours, typically 10 kt above the steady wind, and the strongest credible gust on record was 48 kt. February is the windiest month (mean 4 kt) and September the calmest.

Runway wind check
Estimated head/tailwind and crosswind for each runway end from the current reported wind.
Current wind is variable at 5 kt: light and variable wind like this is generally not a factor for runway selection, and with no steady direction there is no head/tail or crosswind component to compute. Live numbers return automatically once a report includes a wind direction.
| Runway | Length | Surface | Head / Tail | Crosswind |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 07 | 3,600 ft | GRVL-F | - | - |
| 25 | 3,600 ft | GRVL-F | - | - |

“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.
