Temperature extremes range from -37°C to 27°C, with an average of -4.2°C, indicating significant seasonal temperature variations. Visibility averages 10 statute miles, with fog present 10.7% of the time, and the most favorable VFR months being September, October, and November.
Notable Features
The airport features three runways with different surface types: two asphalt (ASP) and one grass (GRS) surface. This diverse runway configuration provides operational flexibility for different aircraft types and weather conditions. The significant runway lengths allow for accommodating various aircraft sizes, from regional to larger international carriers.
Approach Considerations
The airport's three runways are oriented along the 02/20 heading, providing multiple approach options. While specific wind data shows calm conditions, pilots should be prepared for potential seasonal wind variations. The multiple runway options and substantial runway lengths offer pilots flexibility in approach and landing strategies, particularly during challenging weather conditions.
