FORECAST & PILOT NOTES · SUPPLEMENTAL

Extended forecast and pilot notes

Current aviation conditions show flight category MVFR, wind from 30° at 5 kt, visibility 10 SM, ceiling 1,400 ft. Forecast suggests tonight chance showers and thunderstorms, low near 43F, 51% chance of precipitation. Key risks: high density altitude; thunderstorms in the forecast. Note: the NWS forecast for now reads "Chance Showers And Thunderstorms" but the current METAR shows none of it; the observation and forecast differ, so trust the METAR for current conditions.

PILOT WEATHER NOTES

High density altitudeMETAR

Density altitude about 5,062 ft (field elevation 4,726 ft). Expect reduced climb performance and a longer takeoff roll.
