Weather Briefing
VFRBillings Logan International Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with clear skies and 10 SM visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the north (360°) at 3 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 10 SM. Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 24°C (75°F) with a dewpoint of 7°C, indicating very dry conditions. High temperatures at this elevation may result in significant density altitude effects. Pilots should calculate density altitude and adjust performance expectations accordingly.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 24 hours. Conditions are expected to fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions. Expected weather includes: Light Thunderstorm Rain. Winds are forecast to reach up to 20 knots during the period. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 6 to 20 knots. There is a 30% probability of MVFR conditions with Light Thunderstorm Rain between 22:00Z and 02:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Billings Logan International Airport
Overview
Billings Logan International Airport serves as a key aviation hub in Montana, located at an elevation of 3,652 feet MSL in the city of Billings. The airport features three paved runways, with the longest runway 10L/28R extending 10,518 feet, capable of handling a wide range of aircraft operations. Its strategic location and substantial runway infrastructure make it an important regional transportation facility.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences predominantly favorable VFR conditions 87.8% of the time, with minimal periods of reduced visibility. Winds predominantly come from the southwest at an average of 10.3 knots, with occasional gusts up to 47 knots. Temperature variations are significant, ranging from -21°C to 31°C, which pilots should consider for performance calculations and aircraft operations.
Notable Features
Situated at a moderate elevation of 3,652 feet, the airport presents typical high-altitude considerations for aircraft performance and density altitude effects. The three parallel runways (07/25, 10L/28R, and 10R/28L) offer multiple approach options and wind compatibility, with each runway showing 100% favorable wind alignment. The geographic location suggests potential for mountain wave and thermal activity typical of the Montana terrain.
Approach Considerations
Pilots can expect consistently favorable wind conditions across all runways, with average crosswinds between 4.7 and 6.5 knots. Seasonal VFR conditions are most stable during September, January, and November. The extensive 10,518-foot primary runway (10L/28R) provides ample landing and takeoff options for diverse aircraft types, with generally good visibility averaging 9.7 statute miles.
