Flying Conditions
With 92.1% VFR days, Boca Raton offers consistently favorable flying conditions. Wind patterns predominantly from the east at an average of 9.3 knots create stable atmospheric conditions, with temperatures ranging from 6°C to 35°C and an average of 24.9°C. Visibility typically exceeds 9.8 statute miles, making it an amenable airport for visual flight operations.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (05/23) measuring 6,276 feet with an asphalt surface. Its low elevation and coastal location provide predictable wind characteristics, with winds favorable for runway 05/23 nearly 100% of the time and an average crosswind component of just 5.9 knots.
Approach Considerations
Pilots can expect optimal VFR conditions during November, December, and January, with minimal probability of instrument meteorological conditions. The consistent eastern wind pattern and long runway provide straightforward approach opportunities, with only 2.3% of observations indicating IFR conditions and a negligible 0.2% experiencing low IFR status.
