⚠️ Weather shown is from the nearest full-scale reporting station, not measured at the field. Not for flight decisions: assess wind and sky conditions on site and follow the AMA Safety Code and your club's field rules.

Runway winds & crosswind

Pre-filled with runway 01/19, measured from aerial imagery. Adjust it if your club flies different numbers and we'll remember your change on this device.

Using runway 01/19

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.
