The year, day by day
Summer here tops out rather than builds: the warmest normal high is 88°F around July 15, short of 90°F on every date, while 175 dates carry a normal low at or below freezing, the coldest 17°F near December 24.
The freezing stretch
The normal low stays at or below 32°F into April 19, then returns to freezing around October 28, covering 175 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.
Where the wet dates fall
The likeliest wet date is July 29, when 27% of years recorded at least a hundredth of an inch. The driest is June 16 at 9%. Summed across the calendar, that is about 66 wet dates a year.
The widest day
June 25 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 34°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Where Cedar Point Stands Nationally
A drier-than-most normal water year — around 15 inches, below what four out of five ranked stations collect.
Daily temperature swings run wider than most of the country, peaking near 34°F between the normal high and low.
Cedar Point earns 2 nationally notable standings (outer quintiles) against 6,860 NOAA 1991–2020 normals stations; only those extremes render.

Cedar Point spreads its precipitation across the year
Neither half of the year dominates here: June through August take 21% of the annual total and December through February 29%, with neither reaching the 35% that would mark a distinct wet season. Cedar Point has no dry season to plan around, though it does carry a 43.7°F seasonal spread.
The gap between the wettest and driest month still matters: October averages 1.8" and June 0.5". The three wettest months together take 33% 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.
How Cedar Point's precipitation splits across the calendar
About 66 days a year record measurable precipitation here, carrying 14.6" between them, or roughly 0.22 inches on a typical wet day. That sits in the middle band: neither the many-light-days pattern of the Pacific Northwest and the Great Lakes, nor the few-heavy-events pattern of the Gulf and the desert Southwest.
A wet day is one recording at least 0.01 inches. These are 1991-2020 normals: they describe an average year and say nothing about the heaviest single storm on record.

Scarce-water calendar
Where Cedar Point's limited precipitation lands
heating led · dry · mid swing
Cedar Point's energy balance leans toward cold weather: 6,589 annual heating degree days against 445 for cooling. Its 43.7°F seasonal range still makes the monthly rows more useful than the annual average alone.
Only about 148 days are frost-free in a normal year. That short interval is consistent with the cold-season signal, but the measure does not predict the exact first or last freeze in any one year.
July and January mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar in Cedar Point's middle-range seasonal profile. The measured spread is 43.7°F. The annual average is 48°F. Neither the annual mean nor one extreme month represents the full calendar on its own.
Cedar Point's cold-season load does not imply a wet climate. Annual precipitation is 14.6 inches, which places the station in PlainClimate's dry range. Snowfall is not added to the interpretation because its annual value is missing. The snowfall and rainfall fields should be read separately rather than inferred from temperature.

Data Sources
Data source: NOAA U.S. Climate Normals v1.0.1 (1991-2020). All figures on this page are from Cedar Point's primary station: CEDAR PT (USC00421308). 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 Cedar Point; 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 Cedar Point comes from its primary NOAA station record.
