Fallon Naas's normals sit in a dry climate class: BWk

Annual precipitation falls well below the aridity threshold for this temperature regime, so the normals classify as cold desert (BWk). Class BWk is the Peel et al. (2007) label for this station's monthly mean temperature and precipitation normals: dry (arid or semi-arid), specifically cold desert.

Methodology

Across 36 complete annual observations from 1955 to 2025, FALLON NAAS warmed at a fitted rate of 0.30°C per decade. The line shows the fitted change relative to its first year, not raw year-to-year temperatures or a forecast.

The year, day by day

Fallon Naas works both ends of the calendar. Normal highs climb to 97°F by July 21 and hold at or above 90°F on 70 dates, then normal lows drop to freezing or below on 151 dates, bottoming at 20°F around December 20.

When the heat sits

Normal highs reach 90°F from June 24 through September 1, covering 70 dates. The broader mild season, normal highs of 70°F or more, runs April 28 to October 17.

This counts calendar dates whose 1991–2020 normal high reaches 90°F. It is a smaller number than the 90°F+ day counts in the monthly table above, which measure how often the threshold was actually crossed in a typical year. A date can average 88°F and still exceed 90°F in half of all years.

The freezing stretch

The normal low stays at or below 32°F into March 24, then returns to freezing around October 26, covering 151 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 January 23, when 19% of years recorded at least a hundredth of an inch. The driest is August 15 at 4%. Summed across the calendar, that is about 43 wet dates a year.

The widest day

August 16 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 39°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Where Fallon Naas Stands Nationally

Aridity defines the water calendar: about 5 inches in a normal year lands this among the driest tenth of ranked stations.

Day-to-night contrast is extreme by national standards — the widest normal daily swing reaches about 39°F, sharper than nine in ten ranked stations see.

Fallon Naas earns 2 nationally notable standings (outer quintiles) against 6,860 NOAA 1991–2020 normals stations; only those extremes render.

Fallon Naas spreads its precipitation across the year

Neither half of the year dominates here: June through August take 13% of the annual total and December through February 28%, with neither reaching the 35% that would mark a distinct wet season. Fallon Naas has no dry season to plan around, though it does carry a 44.1°F seasonal spread.

The gap between the wettest and driest month still matters: May averages 0.9" and August 0.1". The three wettest months together take 38% 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.

Fallon Naas is dry, and what does fall arrives gently

Only about 44 days a year record measurable precipitation here, 12% of the calendar, and they carry 4.9" between them. At roughly 0.11 inches on an average wet day, this is not the damp drizzle of a marine climate; it is an arid record in which precipitation is both uncommon and light when it appears.

The wettest month by count is January at about 6 wet days; the driest is August at about 1.

A low per-event average in a dry record is a statement about typical days only. Arid regions can still take a large share of a year's total from a single convective storm, which a normal cannot show.

A wet day is one recording at least 0.01 inches. These are 1991-2020 normals: they describe an average year, not the extremes within it.

Scarce-water calendar

Where Fallon Naas's limited precipitation lands

heating led · dry · mid swing

Fallon Naas's energy balance leans toward cold weather: 5,088 annual heating degree days against 1,004 for cooling. Its 44.1°F seasonal range still makes the monthly rows more useful than the annual average alone.

Fallon Naas's frost-free season lasts about 155 days, a middle-length window whose endpoints matter more than the annual average. It describes freeze probability, not year-specific planting conditions.

July and December mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar in Fallon Naas's middle-range seasonal profile. The measured spread is 44.1°F. The annual average is 54°F. Neither the annual mean nor one extreme month represents the full calendar on its own.

Fallon Naas's cold-season load does not imply a wet climate. Annual precipitation is 4.9 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.

August is typically driest; arid stations are defined by when water is absent, not by a four-season grid.

Questions about Fallon Naas's climate

How dry is Fallon Naas?
Fallon Naas receives 4.9 inches of precipitation a year, spread across roughly 44 days that record any measurable amount. For reference, the contiguous United States averages near 30 inches. Based on NOAA 30-year climate normals (1991-2020).
How many days above 90°F does Fallon Naas get?
Fallon Naas averages about 82 days a year at or above 90°F, concentrated in July and the months either side of it. That is a count of days reaching the threshold, not a measure of how far above it they go.
How much energy does heating and cooling require in Fallon Naas?
Fallon Naas has 5,088 heating degree days and 1,004 cooling degree days annually, a heating-dominated climate. Degree-day definitions: reading weather data.

Data Sources

Data source: NOAA U.S. Climate Normals v1.0.1 (1991-2020). All figures on this page are from Fallon Naas's primary station: FALLON NAAS (USW00093102). 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 Fallon Naas; facility counts that depend on place identity are therefore an upper bound, not a municipal census.
