What Cohagen's climate means for you
Cohagen runs 44°F a year - peaking in July, coldest in January.
These are 30-year NOAA normals (1991–2020) - the typical year, not a forecast for any specific season.
Based on station USC00241875 feeding NOAA's 1991–2020 climate normals, Cohagen, Montana averages 44°F a year, ranging from a mean daily high of 58°F to a mean daily low of 30°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.
Cohagen averages 12.3 inches of precipitation a year, with 24.6 inches typically falling as snow, and that matters as much to daily life here as temperature does. The frost-free season averages 112 days, which directly shapes the planting calendar and growing potential for the area, with the last spring freeze near May 25 and the first fall freeze near September 14. As for energy demand, 8,181 heating degree days and 408 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Cohagen scores 39/100 (Below Average), 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.
