What Argyle's climate means for you
Argyle runs 40°F a year - peaking in July, coldest in January.
These are 30-year NOAA normals (1991–2020) - the typical year, not a forecast for any specific season.
In Argyle, Minnesota, the NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals put the annual average temperature at 40°F, ranging from a mean daily high of 51°F to a mean daily low of 28°F. July is typically the warmest month of the year, while January is the coldest. As thirty-year averages computed from station USC00210252, these numbers smooth out year-to-year noise into a working baseline for a typical month.
Argyle averages 22.9 inches of precipitation a year, with 43.6 inches typically falling as snow, and that matters as much to daily life here as temperature does. The frost-free season averages 134 days, which directly shapes the planting calendar and growing potential for the area, with the last spring freeze near May 15 and the first fall freeze near September 26. As for energy demand, 9,613 heating degree days and 375 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Argyle scores 49/100 (Moderate), a blended measure that weighs temperature mildness, precipitation moderation, and extreme-weather frequency against one another. The monthly tables above turn that into a planning tool: expect the mildest highs and lows in the shoulder seasons, July-driven heat at the peak of summer, and January-driven cold at the depth of winter. Every number here is a thirty-year average, not a forecast, so any given year can and does run warmer, cooler, wetter, or drier than the normal.
