Climate Insight: Avon, NY
An annual average temperature of 48°F, ranging from a mean daily high of 58°F to a mean daily low of 38°F is what the NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals report for Avon, New York. July is typically the warmest month of the year, while January is the coldest. That baseline comes from station USC00300343 and thirty years of averaging, so it reflects a typical month rather than any one year's swings.
Anyone planning to live, garden, or travel in Avon should weigh precipitation alongside temperature: the annual average runs 33.6 inches, with 51.7 inches typically falling as snow. The frost-free season averages 165 days, which directly shapes the planting calendar and growing potential for the area, with the last spring freeze near May 3 and the first fall freeze near October 15. And on the energy front, 6,744 heating degree days and 538 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Avon scores 54/100 (Moderate), a blended measure that weighs temperature mildness, precipitation moderation, and extreme-weather frequency against one another. For planning purposes, look to the monthly tables above: shoulder seasons bring the mildest highs and lows, summer brings July-driven heat, and deep winter brings January-driven cold. Treat every figure here as a thirty-year average rather than a forecast - individual years routinely run warmer, cooler, wetter, or drier than the normal.
