What is each month like in Jeffersonville?
NOAA's grid estimates the normals every 5 km or so from the stations around each point, terrain included. It smooths between stations, so night lows at the heart of a large city can run warmer than the grid shows: at five big-city airports we compared, the grid's highs were within about 1°F of the station and its lows 1-6°F cooler. The nearest record's high and low are beside each month.

How much snow, how late a frost, what zone and how much sun in Jeffersonville?
NOAA's grid gives no snow, frost dates or records, so these come from the nearest station record, Louisville McAlpine (6 miles SW, 440 ft). It gets 4 inches of snow in a normal year. The last spring frost (32°F) comes after March 31 in half of years and the first autumn frost before November 9.
The USDA's 2023 Plant Hardiness Zone Map puts Jeffersonville in zone 7a (ZIP code 47130).
