Key Takeaways:
Attendees heading to EAA AirVenture (July 22-28) in Oshkosh should prepare for potential rain and smoke.
Smoke from wildfires, anticipated to be present earlier in the day, is expected to clear later in the afternoon due to convective activity.
Scott Dennstaedt's forecast, derived from NOAA atmospheric tools, offers aviators insights into weather conditions for both travel to and attendance at the event.
If you are heading to EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, to be part of the annual migration to the world’s largest fly-in, be sure to carry a rain poncho and perhaps a face mask.
That’s because both precipitation and smoke are a possibility during the airshow (July 22-28), according to Scott Dennstaedt, author of the EZWxBrief and a FLYING contributor.
