Anyone else experiencing the wacky wind at KJFK? Its changing speed a lot. Good for challenging touch and goes.

I’m scheduled to land at JFK at around 1230z. This should make for an interesting end to my flight.

Don’t end up landing on the taxiway and rack up overspeed violations! Jk.

I’m currently getting a 137kt headwind on decent into JFK off the coast. This should be good.

Yea, it sucks here now. Dont forget the 40 F temp 😵
It’s possible that these winds are coming from the northwest, as CYYZ had 25kt winds yesterday, I may be wrong though
They are, I’m getting tailwind, but it’s only 19kts, and I just passed CYYC
We have a severe cold front coming through the area and it’s gusting up to 40 mph. Has been for a few days.
