You could get an aviation band radio and listen to the tower frequency, or the delivery clearance frequency, or the ATIS even. faa.gov/air_traffic/weather/asos/?airportId=ksfo Phone in & listen to the airport weather. | |

| Jan 30, 2019 at 22:15 | comment | added | WildGurgs36 | @MikeSowsun yes, and as many RWYs as possible | |
