Warming context for Imlay

Methodology

Imlay's NOAA 1991-2020 normal sits inside a longer story: U.S. land temperatures have been tracking (and drifting from) the global mean since 1900, and the chart below shows that spread, with the most recent decade running warmer than the 30-year mean.

Climate Guides

Climate Insight: Imlay, NV

An annual average temperature of 50°F, ranging from a mean daily high of 65°F to a mean daily low of 36°F is what the NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals report for Imlay, Nevada. July is typically the warmest month of the year, while December is the coldest. That baseline comes from station USC00263957 and thirty years of averaging, so it reflects a typical month rather than any one year's swings.

Rainfall (and snow, where it falls) shapes day-to-day life here as much as temperature does. Imlay sees about 8.4 inches of precipitation a year, with 11.6 inches typically falling as snow. The frost-free season averages 133 days, which directly shapes the planting calendar and growing potential for the area, with the last spring freeze near May 17 and the first fall freeze near September 27. On the energy side, 6,059 heating degree days and 728 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.

On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Imlay scores 44/100 (Moderate), 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 December-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.
