Weather conditions at Saint John Airport demonstrate significant variability, with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) predominating at 61.2% of observations. Pilots should anticipate substantial meteorological changes, with Marginal VFR and Instrument Flight Rules conditions collectively representing 38.5% of recorded periods. Temperature ranges from -25°C to 24°C, with an average of 2.9°C, indicating potential icing and thermal fluctuation considerations.
Notable Features
The airport features two asphalt runways: Runway 05/23 at 7000 feet and Runway 14/32 at 5100 feet. Prevailing winds consistently come from the west (270°) at an average speed of 9.5 knots, with maximum gusts reaching 34 knots. Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, suggesting flexible operational capabilities across wind conditions.
Approach Considerations
September, October, and November represent the most favorable VFR months, offering optimal flying conditions. Average crosswind components are moderate, measuring 6.5 knots for Runway 05/23 and 5.8 knots for Runway 14/32. Pilots should be prepared for potential reduced visibility, with 8.1% of observations showing less than 3 statute miles of visibility and 7.2% experiencing fog conditions.
