Plain English Meaning

What the wind is doing right now at the airport — which way it's blowing from and how strong it is.

Full Definition

The current state of the wind at or near an airport, described by its direction (where it is blowing from, in degrees relative to true or magnetic north) and its speed (in knots), including any gusts or variability. Wind conditions determine which runway is in use and influence takeoff, landing, and traffic pattern decisions.

Context Anchor

Pilots check wind conditions before entering the airport traffic pattern, choosing a runway, taking off, or landing.

Why Pilots Care

Wind conditions determine which runway is usable and whether a safe takeoff or landing is possible within the 's limits.
