JOINT BASE CHARLESTON, S.C. – After airfield snow and ice removal efforts and safety inspections conducted this morning by base operations personnel, the airfield’s Runway 15/33 has reopened for flight operations as of 2 p.m., Jan. 7.

The Joint Base, Charleston Aviation Authority and Boeing personnel worked to clear the airfield runways since winter storm Grayson dumped up to 6-inches of snow on the airfield. Both Runways 03/21 and 15/33 are now fully operational.
