Weather Briefing
VFRKingston Norman Rogers Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with overcast skies at 6,300 feet and 8 SM visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the west (260°) at 12 knots. Runway 25 is favored with a 12-knot headwind and 2-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 8 SM. The ceiling is 6300 feet AGL (overcast), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 16°C (61°F) with a dewpoint of 14°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 7 hours. The forecast shows a transition between VFR and IFR conditions. Pilots should monitor the forecast closely and have an alternate airport plan. Expected weather includes: Light Showers Rain, Light Showers Rain, Mist, Light Thunderstorm Rain, Mist, FCST. Winds are forecast to reach up to 20 knots during the period. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Rain, Mist between 00:00Z and 03:00Z. There is a 30% probability of LIFR conditions with Light Thunderstorm Rain, Mist, FCST between 00:00Z and 03:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About Kingston Norman Rogers Airport
Overview
Kingston Norman Rogers Airport serves the Kingston area in Ontario, Canada as a medium-sized airport. Located at coordinates 44.225300, -76.596901 and elevated at 305 ft MSL, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region. It features two asphalt runways capable of supporting a variety of aircraft operations.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at CYGK demonstrate significant variability, with visual flight rules (VFR) prevailing in 65.2% of observations. Pilots can expect western winds averaging 9.8 knots, with occasional gusts up to 33 knots. Temperature ranges from -21°C to 26°C, creating diverse meteorological challenges throughout the year, with September through November offering the most consistently favorable VFR conditions.
Notable Features
The airport's dual runway configuration (01/19 at 6001ft and 07/25 at 3933ft) provides operational flexibility for different wind conditions. Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignments with minimal average crosswind components around 5.9 and 5.8 knots respectively. The airport's terrain and elevation suggest a relatively straightforward approach environment.
Approach Considerations
Visibility averages 12.4 statute miles, with only 4.7% of observations showing restricted visibility below 3 miles. Pilots should anticipate predominantly westerly winds and be prepared for occasional reduced visibility, though fog is rare at only 0.4% of observations. The dual runway setup allows for consistent wind-aligned approaches regardless of prevailing wind direction.
