The year, day by day

The year in Austin Bergstrom runs from a mild 37°F around January 6 to 98°F at the peak near August 6, and the normal low never reaches freezing on any date in the record.

When the heat sits

Normal highs reach 90°F from May 28 through September 19, covering 115 dates. The broader mild season, normal highs of 70°F or more, runs March 5 to November 20.

This counts calendar dates whose 1991–2020 normal high reaches 90°F. It is a smaller number than the 90°F+ day counts in the monthly table above, which measure how often the threshold was actually crossed in a typical year. A date can average 88°F and still exceed 90°F in half of all years.

No freezing date

Not one calendar date in the 1991–2020 record carries a normal low at or below 32°F. The coldest normal low of the year is 37°F around January 6.

Where the wet dates fall

The likeliest wet date is March 2, when 28% of years recorded at least a hundredth of an inch. The driest is July 29 at 14%. Summed across the calendar, that is about 83 wet dates a year.

The widest day

October 17 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 26°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Where Austin Bergstrom Stands Nationally

Summers here run among the most heat-heavy normals calendars in the country: on about 115 days a year the normal daily high itself reaches 90°F — a count fewer than one station in ten exceeds.

Austin Bergstrom spreads its precipitation across the year

Neither half of the year dominates here: June through August take 22% of the annual total and December through February 21%, with neither reaching the 35% that would mark a distinct wet season. Austin Bergstrom has no dry season to plan around, though it does carry a 34.7°F seasonal spread.

The gap between the wettest and driest month still matters: May averages 5.0" and February 1.9". The three wettest months together take 35% of the year, against the 25% a perfectly flat distribution would give them.

Shares are computed from this station's own 1991-2020 monthly precipitation normals. "Spread across the year" means neither the June-August nor the December-February share reaches 35%; it describes an average year, not the variability of any single one.

When it rains in Austin Bergstrom, it arrives in quantity

35.6" of precipitation falls across only about 82 wet days here, averaging 0.43 inches each. Fewer days carry more water: the year's total is delivered in comparatively heavy events rather than persistent damp.

A wet day is one recording at least 0.01 inches. These are 1991-2020 normals: they describe an average year, and a per-day average is not a forecast of any individual storm.

Snow reaches Austin Bergstrom, but rarely amounts to much

The normals record 0.2 inches of snow a year here, most likely in February. That is a real but marginal amount: enough that snow is part of the local record, not enough to define the winter.

A figure in this range usually reflects a handful of events that melt quickly rather than a season of accumulation; about 0 days a year record any measurable snow at all.

NOAA 1991-2020 normals. An average across thirty years can smooth away a single heavy winter, so a small annual figure does not mean a significant snowfall is impossible.

Data-derived climate profile

How Austin Bergstrom's climate pattern fits together

mixed demand · moderate · mid swing

August and January mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar in Austin Bergstrom's middle-range seasonal profile. The measured spread is 34.7°F. The annual average is 68°F. Neither the annual mean nor one extreme month represents the full calendar on its own.

Heating and cooling both register in Austin Bergstrom's normal, at 1,718 and 2,996 degree days respectively. Neither total exceeds the other by more than two to one, so the record is better read as a mixed-demand calendar than as heating-led or cooling-led.

The frost-free window extends for about 249 days. That is a long calendar measure, but it is not a forecast and does not combine heat, rainfall, soil, or local elevation into a planting recommendation.

Austin Bergstrom's 35.6 inches of annual precipitation falls in PlainClimate's middle band, so “wet” or “dry” is not the leading description. Recorded annual snowfall is negligible. Temperature balance and the calendar distribution carry more information than the annual moisture label alone.

These labels group NOAA 1991-2020 normals from Austin Bergstrom's primary station, where heating and cooling demand are close enough that neither season sets the character on its own. On a balanced station like Austin Bergstrom, the bands are descriptive ranges rather than an official NOAA classification or a forecast.

Questions about Austin Bergstrom's climate

How much rain does Austin Bergstrom get?
Austin Bergstrom receives 35.6 inches of precipitation, including 0.2 inches of snow. Based on NOAA 30-year climate normals (1991-2020).
How many days above 90°F does Austin Bergstrom get?
Austin Bergstrom averages about 124 days a year at or above 90°F, concentrated in August and the months either side of it. That is a count of days reaching the threshold, not a measure of how far above it they go.
How much energy does heating and cooling require in Austin Bergstrom?
Austin Bergstrom has 1,718 heating degree days and 2,996 cooling degree days annually, a fairly balanced heating/cooling split. Degree-day definitions: reading weather data.

Data Sources

Data source: NOAA U.S. Climate Normals v1.0.1 (1991-2020). All figures on this page are from Austin Bergstrom's primary station: AUSTIN BERGSTROM AP (USW00013904). For informational purposes only.

Place identity: U.S. Census Bureau 2024 Gazetteer places. The conservative exact name-and-state crosswalk finds no Census place match, so PlainClimate treats this as a station-mapped location and does not claim it is a municipality. No exact Gazetteer row for Austin Bergstrom; facility counts that depend on place identity are therefore an upper bound, not a municipal census.
