Runway 6 — wind slightly favors it, low confidence

Based mostly on wind; no traffic or ATIS to confirm. No D-ATIS feed here — a voice ATIS/AWOS may exist; check the frequency.

KHWV field & runways

Brookhaven, Shirley, New York. Field elevation 81 ft. Non-towered (NON-ATCT). Magnetic variation 14.0°W on record, 13.0°W today.

The FAA's variation of record is the number this field was surveyed against; the second is where north points now, from WMM2025. It is moving 0.048°/year east — about 1° every 21 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.

Runway data from the FAA NASR 01 Oct 2026 cycle. Where NASR locates both thresholds, the true heading is the bearing between them rather than NASR's whole-degree alignment. Magnetic is that heading against today's declination from WMM2025, not the field's variation of record — so it can differ from the chart by the gap between the two shown above. The number painted on the runway is the one ATC uses.

What KHWV usually does

Of 788 operations this service has observed at KHWV since 2026-08-25:

Observed by this service only — not an FAA statistic, and biased toward the hours and days it has been watching. It is shown because it is the same history the engine learns its local-convention prior from.
