The year, day by day
The year in Flamingo Ranger Station runs from a mild 57°F around January 14 to 91°F at the peak near August 1, and the normal low never reaches freezing on any date in the record.
When the heat sits
Normal highs reach 90°F from July 5 through September 3, covering 61 dates. The broader mild season, normal highs of 70°F or more, runs January 1 to December 31.
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.
No freezing date
Not one calendar date in the 1991–2020 record carries a normal low at or below 32°F. The coldest normal low of the year is 57°F around January 14.
Where the wet dates fall
The likeliest wet date is September 10, when 51% of years recorded at least a hundredth of an inch. The driest is March 30 at 15%. Summed across the calendar, that is about 111 wet dates a year.
The widest day
March 14 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 19°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Flamingo Ranger Station runs a summer-peaked wet season
43% of Flamingo Ranger Station's yearly precipitation falls in June, July and August alone, against the 25% an evenly spread year would give those three months. The wettest month is September at 7.2", on an unusually narrow 16.1°F seasonal spread. Warm-season convection and, across the Southwest, the North American monsoon produce this shape: rain arrives in short heavy bursts during the hottest part of the year rather than as long cool-season soaking.
- Wettest three months: September, June, August, taking 45% of the annual total between them.
- Driest month: March at 1.6".
- Winter share: 11% falls in December, January and February.
Shares are computed from this station's own 1991-2020 monthly precipitation normals. A summer-peaked label means the June-August share reaches 35%; it describes timing across an average year, not any single season, and says nothing about how heavy an individual storm can be.
When it rains in Flamingo Ranger Station, it arrives in quantity
46.8" of precipitation falls across only about 111 wet days here, averaging 0.42 inches each. Fewer days carry more water: the year's total is delivered in comparatively heavy events rather than persistent damp.
- Days with measurable precipitation
- about 111 a year, 30% of all days
- Average depth per wet day
- 0.42 inches
- Most wet days
- September, about 15
- Fewest wet days
- March, about 5
A wet day is one recording at least 0.01 inches. These are 1991-2020 normals: they describe an average year, and a per-day average is not a forecast of any individual storm.
Flamingo Ranger Station's record shows no measurable snowfall
This station measured snowfall across the 1991-2020 period and recorded none: the annual normal is 0.0 inches. That is a measured zero rather than missing data, which is a meaningful distinction here , most stations in the database simply do not report snow at all, and those pages say nothing about it.
A thirty-year normal of zero describes the typical year at this station. It is not a claim that snow has never fallen in the area.

How Flamingo Ranger Station's climate pattern fits together
cooling led · wet · low swing
Warm-season load persists through a relatively even calendar in Flamingo Ranger Station. Cooling totals 4,205 degree days, more than double the 140 heating measure, and the 16.1°F seasonal range is compact rather than sharply divided.
Warm-season demand is paired with a wet annual normal: 46.8 inches of precipitation at Flamingo Ranger Station. Recorded annual snowfall is negligible. The month-by-month bars distinguish a concentrated wet season from moisture spread across the calendar.
Flamingo Ranger Station's 16.1°F seasonal spread is compact even though precipitation is abundant. July and January mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar. The annual average is 76°F. Temperature is relatively steady; the monthly rows show how rain and snow observations vary across the calendar.
A frost-free growing-season length is not available for Flamingo Ranger Station. That missing field is kept separate from the observed temperature and precipitation record rather than filled from a regional estimate.
These labels group NOAA 1991-2020 normals from Flamingo Ranger Station's primary station, so the summer figures are a thirty-year average rather than a ceiling: individual years have run hotter and will again. They are descriptive ranges, not an official NOAA classification or a forecast for any specific year.
The year in four calendar signals
- Warmest normal
- July
- At 83°F (28°C) this is a genuinely hot month, in the top third of US stations, and the daily average understates afternoon highs.
- Coldest normal
- January
- The coldest month still averages 67°F (19°C), above freezing, so this calendar has no hard winter.
- Rainfall rhythm
- September to March
- September is typically wettest; March is driest.
- Mild-temperature window
- January through December
- Monthly means sit between 55°F and 75°F in this window. Freezing days are still reported from January through December.

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. The reproducible method is an exact normalized name-and-state match; unresolved is an upper bound on facilities because spelling variants can be missed.
