Weather Briefing
VFRPangborn Memorial Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with clear skies and 10 SM visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the northwest (310°) at 11 knots with gusts to 20 knots. Runway 30 is favored with a 11-knot headwind and 2-knot crosswind component (gusting to 3 knots crosswind).
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 10 SM. Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 31°C (88°F) with a dewpoint of 3°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 remain VFR throughout the forecast period.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Pangborn Memorial Airport
Overview
Pangborn Memorial Airport serves the Wenatchee region in central Washington State, positioned at 1,249 feet above mean sea level. Located at coordinates 47.398899, -120.207001, this medium-sized airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the local area with two paved runways supporting various aircraft operations.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at KEAT demonstrate significant variability, with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) prevailing approximately 59.9% of the time. Pilots can expect moderate challenges, with Marginal VFR conditions occurring 21.6% of observations and occasional IFR/Low IFR periods. Temperature ranges from -6°C to 31°C, with an average of 6.2°C, suggesting potential for significant thermal variations.
Notable Features
The airport features two asphalt runways: Runway 07/25 measuring 4,460 feet and Runway 12/30 extending 7,000 feet. Winds predominantly originate from the west (270°) at an average of 6 knots, with maximum recorded speeds of 32 knots. Calm wind conditions occur during 25.6% of observations, providing relatively stable operational environments.
Approach Considerations
Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, with minimal average crosswind components (3.7 knots for 07/25 and 2.3 knots for 12/30). Visibility averages 8.6 statute miles, though pilots should anticipate occasional reduced visibility, with 3.9% of observations showing less than 3 statute miles and 7.2% experiencing fog conditions. September, October, and December historically offer the most consistent VFR conditions.
