What Carnegie's climate means for you

Carnegie runs 61°F a year - peaking in July, coldest in January.

  • Gardeners get about 208 frost-free days, with the last spring freeze near April 6 - plan the planting calendar around it, not the regional average.
  • Energy bills track 3,603 heating and 2,048 cooling degree days a year, higher means the furnace or AC runs more.
  • Comparing places to live? Line this city up against nearby cities and the national rankings. See rankings

Climate Guides

Climate Insight: Carnegie, OK

Based on station USC00341504 feeding NOAA's 1991–2020 climate normals, Carnegie, Oklahoma averages 61°F a year, ranging from a mean daily high of 73°F to a mean daily low of 49°F. July is typically the warmest month of the year, while January is the coldest. Because these figures are thirty-year averages rather than any single year's readings, they describe the typical month, not a forecast for it.

Carnegie averages an uncharted amount of precipitation a year, predominantly as rainfall, and that matters as much to daily life here as temperature does. The frost-free season averages 208 days, which directly shapes the planting calendar and growing potential for the area, with the last spring freeze near April 6 and the first fall freeze near October 31. As for energy demand, 3,603 heating degree days and 2,048 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.

On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Carnegie scores 73/100 (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 July-driven heat, or deep winter for January-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.
