FORECAST & PILOT NOTES · SUPPLEMENTAL

Extended forecast and pilot notes

Current aviation conditions show flight category VFR, wind from 360° at 4 kt, visibility 10 SM, ceiling none. Forecast suggests this afternoon sunny, high near 55F, low near 36F, 1% chance of precipitation. Key risks: high density altitude; thunderstorms in the forecast.

PILOT WEATHER NOTES

High density altitudeMETAR

Density altitude about 6,437 ft (field elevation 5,622 ft). Expect reduced climb performance and a longer takeoff roll.
