Climate Insight: Battle Ground, WA

The NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals describe Battle Ground, Washington as a location with an annual average temperature of 51°F, ranging from a mean daily high of 62°F to a mean daily low of 40°F. August is typically the warmest month of the year, while December is the coldest. These thirty-year averages, computed from station USC00450482, smooth out year-to-year variability and give a baseline expectation for typical conditions in any given month.

Precipitation patterns matter as much as temperature for anyone planning to live, garden, or travel here. Battle Ground receives roughly 52.4 inches of precipitation each year, with 1.4 inches typically falling as snow. Growing-season length varies with elevation and microclimate, with the last spring freeze near April 26 and the first fall freeze near October 16. For energy use, 5,303 heating degree days and 164 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.

On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Battle Ground scores 62/100 (Good), a blended measure that weighs temperature mildness, precipitation moderation, and extreme-weather frequency against one another. Use the monthly tables above to plan around specific windows — shoulder seasons for mild highs and lows, peak summer for August-driven heat, or deep winter for December-driven cold. All figures here are thirty-year averages: any single year may run warmer, wetter, drier, or cooler than the normal, so treat them as planning guidance rather than forecasts.
