Hobart Regional Airport is an airport with the ICAO code KHBR and the IATA code HBR. Country: United States. Nearest settlement listed in the database: Hobart. OurAirports classifies it as a medium-sized airport. Its ICAO code starts with the KH prefix, which marks airports in United States. The four-letter code KHBR is used in flight operations and weather reports, while the three-letter IATA code HBR is used for ticketing and baggage handling. The airport reference point sits at 34°59'29"N, 99°03'05"W, at an elevation of 1,563 ft (476 m) above sea level. The applicable time zone is America/Chicago.

The course is derived from the runway designator (number × 10), not from a survey - the actual magnetic bearing can differ by a few degrees.
Declared distances (TORA, TODA, ASDA, LDA) are published in the national AIP - they are not part of this table.
According to OurAirports data (compiled from AIP and FAA sources), Hobart Regional Airport has 2 runways: 03/21 - 907 m long (2,975 ft), 18 m wide, asphalt surface; 17/35 - 1,679 m long (5,507 ft), 30 m wide, asphalt surface.
The longest of them is 17/35, at 1,679 m.
The thresholds are oriented as follows: 03/21 on 30° and 210° magnetic, 17/35 on 170° and 350° magnetic. A threshold designator is its magnetic heading divided by ten (ICAO Annex 14), so the runway axis can be read straight off the numbers.
For the 03/21 axis, wind from the south-east (around 120°) or from the north-west (around 300°) blows perpendicular to the runway and produces the largest crosswind component. Wind from around 30° or 210° acts along the runway, as a headwind or a tailwind. The decoder on this page computes those components automatically from the current METAR.
Weather reports for Hobart Regional Airport are published under the ICAO code KHBR. A METAR is an observation of current conditions, usually issued every 30 or 60 minutes; a TAF is a forecast for the airport area, typically covering 9 to 30 hours.
The decoder breaks the KHBR report down into its parts: wind direction and speed including gusts and variability, visibility (including CAVOK and directional minimum visibility), weather phenomena by WMO code, cloud layers with their bases, temperature and dew point, QNH pressure, and the resulting flight category - VFR, MVFR, IFR or LIFR - using FAA thresholds.
Not every airport issues its own reports; many smaller airfields have no weather station. If no current data is available for KHBR, check the nearby airports listed below.
Reports always use UTC (the Z suffix). The America/Chicago zone is GMT-06:00 in winter and GMT-05:00 in summer - that is the shift to apply to the time in the report to get local time at the airport.
The closest airports in the database, measured in a straight line from the reference point, are Clinton Sherman Airport (KCSM, 41 km), Altus Air Force Base (KLTS, 41 km), Altus Quartz Mountain Regional Airport (KAXS, 42 km). When no report is available for KHBR, they usually give the best approximation of conditions in the area.
