The freezing stretch
The normal low stays at or below 32°F into March 17, then returns to freezing around November 19, covering 120 dates in all.
Derived from the normal daily minimum. This is a different measure from the 50%-probability frost dates shown elsewhere on this page, which come from NOAA’s frost product.
The widest day
April 15 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 26°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Data-derived climate profile
How Breaks Interstate Park's climate pattern fits together
heating led · mid swing
Breaks Interstate Park's energy balance leans toward cold weather: 4,857 annual heating degree days against 706 for cooling. Its 39.1°F seasonal range still makes the monthly rows more useful than the annual average alone.
Breaks Interstate Park's frost-free season lasts about 184 days, a middle-length window whose endpoints matter more than the annual average. It describes freeze probability, not year-specific planting conditions.
July and January mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar in Breaks Interstate Park's middle-range seasonal profile. The measured spread is 39.1°F. The annual average is 54°F. Neither the annual mean nor one extreme month represents the full calendar on its own.
A moisture-range label is withheld because Breaks Interstate Park's annual precipitation total is unavailable. Monthly source values remain visible where NOAA provides them, and no annual amount is reconstructed from incomplete data.
These labels group NOAA 1991-2020 normals from Breaks Interstate Park's primary station, so the winter figures are a thirty-year average and not a floor: a single hard season can run well below them. Treat each band as a descriptive range for Breaks Interstate Park, not an official NOAA class or a year-ahead forecast.

Data Sources
Data source: NOAA U.S. Climate Normals v1.0.1 (1991-2020). All figures on this page are from Breaks Interstate Park's primary station: BREAKS INTERSTATE PARK (USC00440982). 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 Breaks Interstate Park; facility counts that depend on place identity are therefore an upper bound, not a municipal census.
On this page every temperature, precipitation, and derived score for Breaks Interstate Park comes from its primary NOAA station record. No figure on this page is typed in by an editor - each value is rendered from NOAA 1991-2020 U.S. Climate Normals.
