What Freeport Waste Wtp's climate means for you
Freeport Waste Wtp runs 48°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.
An annual average temperature of 48°F, ranging from a mean daily high of 58°F to a mean daily low of 38°F is what the NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals report for Freeport Waste Wtp, Illinois. July is typically the warmest month of the year, while January is the coldest. That baseline comes from station USC00113262 and thirty years of averaging, so it reflects a typical month rather than any one year's swings.
Freeport Waste Wtp averages 38.4 inches of precipitation a year, with 34.5 inches typically falling as snow, and that matters as much to daily life here as temperature does. The frost-free season averages 170 days, which directly shapes the planting calendar and growing potential for the area, with the last spring freeze near April 26 and the first fall freeze near October 13. As for energy demand, 6,956 heating degree days and 690 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Freeport Waste Wtp scores 59/100 (Moderate), a blended measure that weighs temperature mildness, precipitation moderation, and extreme-weather frequency against one another. For planning purposes, look to the monthly tables above: shoulder seasons bring the mildest highs and lows, summer brings July-driven heat, and deep winter brings January-driven cold. Treat every figure here as a thirty-year average rather than a forecast - individual years routinely run warmer, cooler, wetter, or drier than the normal.
