The 4,154-foot runway provides approximately 4,008 feet of effective sea-level performance.

Harrison County Airport's temperate latitude produces generally favorable flying conditions with seasonal variation. Winter brings frontal passages that can drop ceilings to IFR minimums for 24-48 hour periods. Freezing precipitation is possible but less persistent than at higher latitudes.
