The calendar barely moves in Kapaka Farm: no date carries a normal high of 90°F or a normal low at freezing. The year runs between 66°F near January 6 and 85°F near September 20.
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 66°F around January 6.
The likeliest wet date is July 19, when 72% of years recorded at least a hundredth of an inch. The driest is January 27 at 52%. Summed across the calendar, that is about 237 wet dates a year.
January 2 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 13°F between the normal high and the normal low.
Any date's 1991–2020 normal for Kapaka Farm.
Among the steadiest day-night climates ranked: even the widest normal daily swing holds to roughly 13°F.
The normal water year runs well above the national norm at roughly 51 inches.

Neither half of the year dominates here: June through August take 18% of the annual total and December through February 31%, with neither reaching the 35% that would mark a distinct wet season. Kapaka Farm has no dry season to plan around, though it does carry an unusually narrow 7.3°F seasonal spread.
The gap between the wettest and driest month still matters: November averages 6.0" and June 2.5". The three wettest months together take 34% of the year, against the 25% a perfectly flat distribution would give them.
Shares are computed from this station's own 1991-2020 monthly precipitation normals. "Spread across the year" means neither the June-August nor the December-February share reaches 35%; it describes an average year, not the variability of any single one.
About 237 days a year record measurable precipitation here, carrying 50.8" between them, or roughly 0.21 inches on a typical wet day. That sits in the middle band: neither the many-light-days pattern of the Pacific Northwest and the Great Lakes, nor the few-heavy-events pattern of the Gulf and the desert Southwest.
A wet day is one recording at least 0.01 inches. These are 1991-2020 normals: they describe an average year and say nothing about the heaviest single storm on record.
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.

Warm-season load persists through a relatively even calendar in Kapaka Farm. Cooling totals 4,081 degree days, more than double the 0 heating measure, and the 7.3°F seasonal range is compact rather than sharply divided.
Warm-season demand is paired with a wet annual normal: 50.8 inches of precipitation at Kapaka Farm. Recorded annual snowfall is negligible. The month-by-month bars distinguish a concentrated wet season from moisture spread across the calendar.
Kapaka Farm's 7.3°F seasonal spread is compact even though precipitation is abundant. September 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 Kapaka Farm. 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 Kapaka Farm'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.

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.
