Snow Day Forecast for 15 February

-Temperatures are predicted to fall sharply below freezing on the evening of the 14th.
-We will continue snow removal in the hangar rows on the 15th.
-Runways are currently open. There is a slight possibility that on the 15th even though runways are relatively clear of snow, there may be an ice sheet with other contaminants which could close the runways again per FAA requirements. If there is an ice sheet then temperature and sun will be required to open the runway.

Note: This information is a forecast and actual conditions may change. Our forecast should be used to indicate when trouble may be encountered in order to add extra caution to your flight planning. If we indicate a runway closure may be imminent and you wish to get out before the closure then call dispatch. Stay abreast of approved weather forecasting and reporting as well as NOTAMS

Runway Availability: This means one runway, a parallel taxiway, and reasonable access to a ramp. Full runway and taxiway access, services, and access to hangars will happen after a runway has been made available. Sometimes a day or more will be required to provide full access.

Snow Day Forecast for 14 and 15 February

-Precipitation expected for the next 24 hrs. Temperatures are predicted to fall sharply below freezing on the evening of the 14th.
-We are in snow removal operations now. We will continue snow removal tomorrow morning and likely throughout the day on the 14th. There is a slight chance that an ice sheet will form in the early hours of the 15th that will require solar energy to melt.
-Runways are currently closed for snow removal. Runways will likely remain closed on the 14th as snow removal continues. There is a possibility that on the 15th even though runways are relatively clear of snow there may be an ice sheet with other contaminants which could keep the runway closed per FAA requirements. If there is an ice sheet then temperature and sun will be required to open the runway, this would likely happen in the early afternoon on the 15th.
