Data-derived climate profile
How Grants Milan Muni's climate pattern fits together
heating led · mid swing
Grants Milan Muni's energy balance leans toward cold weather: 5,863 annual heating degree days against 435 for cooling. Its 41.1°F seasonal range still makes the monthly rows more useful than the annual average alone.
Only about 130 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 December mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar in Grants Milan Muni's middle-range seasonal profile. The measured spread is 41.1°F. The annual average is 50°F. Neither the annual mean nor one extreme month represents the full calendar on its own.
A moisture-range label is withheld because Grants Milan Muni's annual precipitation total is unavailable. Monthly source values remain visible where NOAA provides them, and no annual amount is reconstructed from incomplete data.
These labels group NOAA 1991-2020 normals from Grants Milan Muni's primary station, so the winter figures are a thirty-year average and not a floor: a single hard season can run well below them. Treat each band as a descriptive range for Grants Milan Muni, not an official NOAA class or a year-ahead forecast.

Data Sources
Data source: NOAA U.S. Climate Normals v1.0.1 (1991-2020). All figures on this page are from Grants Milan Muni's primary station: GRANTS MILAN MUNI AP (USW00093057). 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 Grants Milan Muni; 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 Grants Milan Muni comes from its primary NOAA station record. No figure on this page is typed in by an editor - each value is rendered from NOAA 1991-2020 U.S. Climate Normals.
