Weather conditions at Rawlins are predominantly favorable for visual flight, with 84.8% of observations reporting VFR conditions. Pilots can expect southwest winds averaging 13.3 knots, with temperature variations ranging from -19°C to 28°C. Autumn months (September through November) consistently offer the most stable flying weather, with minimal meteorological restrictions.
Notable Features
The airport's high elevation at 6,813 feet requires careful performance planning for aircraft operations.
