KSMS Sumter
Unknown — not enough evidence to call a runway
We don't know, and saying so beats guessing. No D-ATIS feed here — a voice ATIS/AWOS may exist; check the frequency. No ADS-B traffic data available. Wind calm — no directional preference.

KSMS field & runways
Sumter, Sumter, South Carolina. Field elevation 182 ft. Non-towered (NON-ATCT). Magnetic variation 7.0°W on record, 8.2°W today.
The FAA's variation of record is the number this field was surveyed against; the second is where north points now, from WMM2025. It is moving 0.042°/year west — about 1° every 24 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.
