The year, day by day
The calendar barely moves in Burbank Valley Pump Plt: no date carries a normal high of 90°F or a normal low at freezing. The year runs between 41°F near December 13 and 89°F near August 28.
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 41°F around December 13.
Where the wet dates fall
The likeliest wet date is February 19, when 23% of years recorded at least a hundredth of an inch. The driest is August 5 at 0%. Summed across the calendar, that is about 35 wet dates a year.
The widest day
November 11 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 29°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Burbank Valley Pump Plt's wet season runs through the cold months
December, January and February carry 64% of the year's precipitation here, while June through August contribute 1%. That is the cool-season-dominant pattern of the West Coast and the higher inland West, where storm tracks swing south in winter and summer turns dry; the thermometer meanwhile shows an unusually narrow 20.8°F seasonal spread.
- Wettest month
- February, 4.5"
- Driest month
- August, 0.0"
- Wettest three months
- February, January, March (66% of the year)
Shares are computed from this station's own 1991-2020 monthly precipitation normals. A cool-season label means the December-February share reaches 35%. Where snow falls, the monthly figures above report liquid-equivalent precipitation, so a wet winter month is not necessarily a rainy one.
When it rains in Burbank Valley Pump Plt, it arrives in quantity
16.5" of precipitation falls across only about 35 wet days here, averaging 0.48 inches each. Fewer days carry more water: the year's total is delivered in comparatively heavy events rather than persistent damp.
- Days with measurable precipitation
- about 35 a year, 9% of all days
- Average depth per wet day
- 0.48 inches
- Most wet days
- February, about 7
- Fewest wet days
- August, about 0
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.
Burbank Valley Pump Plt's record shows no measurable snowfall
This station measured snowfall across the 1991-2020 period and recorded none: the annual normal is 0.0 inches. That is a measured zero rather than missing data, which is a meaningful distinction here , most stations in the database simply do not report snow at all, and those pages say nothing about it.
A thirty-year normal of zero describes the typical year at this station. It is not a claim that snow has never fallen in the area.

Data-derived climate profile
How Burbank Valley Pump Plt's climate pattern fits together
mixed demand · dry · low swing
Local precipitation is sparse in this otherwise mixed profile. The station reports 16.5 inches annually, within PlainClimate's dry band. Recorded annual snowfall is negligible. The monthly distribution matters because the total alone does not reveal the timing.
The calendar stays thermally compact and dry. August and December mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar, only 20.8°F apart, while the annual precipitation total remains below PlainClimate's dry threshold. The annual average is 65°F. The monthly rows show whether that limited precipitation is spread through the year or concentrated in a shorter interval.
Burbank Valley Pump Plt combines a compact 20.8°F annual temperature range with meaningful demand on both sides of the thermostat: 1,463 heating and 1,287 cooling degree days. The balance matters more here than either annual total in isolation.
Burbank Valley Pump Plt has a long frost-free window of roughly 358 days, but the dry annual profile is a separate constraint. Growing-season length says when freezes are unlikely, not whether rainfall is sufficient.
These labels group NOAA 1991-2020 normals from Burbank Valley Pump Plt'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 Burbank Valley Pump Plt, the bands are descriptive ranges rather than an official NOAA classification or a forecast.

Data Sources
Data source: NOAA U.S. Climate Normals v1.0.1 (1991-2020). All figures on this page are from Burbank Valley Pump Plt's primary station: BURBANK VALLEY PUMP PLT (USC00041194). 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 Burbank Valley Pump Plt; 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 Burbank Valley Pump Plt comes from its primary NOAA station record.
