The year, day by day
Summer here tops out rather than builds: the warmest normal high is 88°F around July 30, short of 90°F on every date, while 104 dates carry a normal low at or below freezing, the coldest 23°F near January 16.
The freezing stretch
The normal low stays at or below 32°F into March 6, then returns to freezing around November 24, covering 104 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 9 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 24°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Monthly Precipitation
Average monthly rainfall
Cassville spreads its precipitation across the year
Neither half of the year dominates here: June through August take 26% of the annual total and December through February 17%, with neither reaching the 35% that would mark a distinct wet season. Cassville has no dry season to plan around, though it does carry a 43.2°F seasonal spread.
The gap between the wettest and driest month still matters: May averages 6.2" and February 2.3". The three wettest months together take 34% of the year, against the 25% a perfectly flat distribution would give them.
Shares are computed from this station's own 1991-2020 monthly precipitation normals. "Spread across the year" means neither the June-August nor the December-February share reaches 35%; it describes an average year, not the variability of any single one.

Data-derived climate profile
How Cassville's climate pattern fits together
heating led · wet · mid swing
Cassville's energy balance leans toward cold weather: 4,518 annual heating degree days against 1,212 for cooling. Its 43.2°F seasonal range still makes the monthly rows more useful than the annual average alone.
Cassville's frost-free season lasts about 195 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 Cassville's middle-range seasonal profile. The measured spread is 43.2°F. The annual average is 56°F. Neither the annual mean nor one extreme month represents the full calendar on its own.
Alongside its heating load, Cassville carries 47.4 inches of precipitation in a normal year, inside PlainClimate's wet range. Snowfall is not added to the interpretation because its annual value is missing. That distinction matters because a wet annual total can arrive as rain, snow, or a mixture at different times.
These labels group NOAA 1991-2020 normals from Cassville'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 Cassville, not an official NOAA class or a year-ahead forecast.

Data source: NOAA U.S. Climate Normals v1.0.1 (1991-2020). All figures on this page are from Cassville's primary station: CASSVILLE (USC00231383). For informational purposes only.
Place identity: U.S. Census Bureau 2024 Gazetteer places. The 2024 Census Gazetteer identifies the exact name-and-state match as an incorporated place (GEOID 2911890). Match rule for Cassville: exact normalized name + state only, no fuzzy expansion, so nearby differently spelled facilities stay unmatched.
On this page every temperature, precipitation, and derived score for Cassville comes from its primary NOAA station record.
