FORECAST & PILOT NOTES · SUPPLEMENTAL

Pilot weather notes

Current aviation conditions show flight category VFR, wind from 20° at 4 kt, visibility 10 SM, ceiling CAVOK. No extended National Weather Service forecast is available for this location. Key risks: high density altitude.

PILOT WEATHER NOTES
High density altitudeMETAR
Density altitude about 5,000 ft (field elevation 3,465 ft). Expect reduced climb performance and a longer takeoff roll.
