The year, day by day
The year in Kite runs from a mild 35°F around January 14 to 93°F at the peak near July 6, and the normal low never reaches freezing on any date in the record.
When the heat sits
Normal highs reach 90°F from June 13 through August 31, covering 80 dates. The broader mild season, normal highs of 70°F or more, runs March 20 to November 8.
This counts calendar dates whose 1991–2020 normal high reaches 90°F. It is a smaller number than the 90°F+ day counts in the monthly table above, which measure how often the threshold was actually crossed in a typical year. A date can average 88°F and still exceed 90°F in half of all years.
No freezing date
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 35°F around January 14.
The widest day
April 20 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 28°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Where Kite Stands Nationally
Heat is a defining feature of the normals calendar — the normal daily high reaches 90°F on roughly 80 days a year, more than four out of five ranked stations record.
Kite earns one nationally notable standing (outer quintile) against 6,860 NOAA 1991–2020 normals stations, middle-of-the-pack metrics stay silent here.
Monthly Precipitation
Average monthly rainfall
Kite spreads its precipitation across the year
Neither half of the year dominates here: June through August take 31% of the annual total and December through February 26%, with neither reaching the 35% that would mark a distinct wet season. Kite has no dry season to plan around, though it does carry a 35.1°F seasonal spread.
The gap between the wettest and driest month still matters: June averages 5.3" and October 2.9". The three wettest months together take 31% 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.

Data-derived climate profile
How Kite's climate pattern fits together
mixed demand · wet · mid swing
Water is prominent even though neither heating nor cooling wholly defines the record. Kite averages 49.0 inches of precipitation a year. Snowfall is not added to the interpretation because its annual value is missing. The monthly table supplies the seasonal distribution hidden by that annual total.
July and January mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar in Kite's middle-range seasonal profile. The measured spread is 35.1°F. The annual average is 64°F. Neither the annual mean nor one extreme month represents the full calendar on its own.
Heating and cooling both register in Kite's normal, at 2,430 and 2,081 degree days respectively. Neither total exceeds the other by more than two to one, so the record is better read as a mixed-demand calendar than as heating-led or cooling-led.
A roughly 232-day frost-free season sits inside this mixed heating-and-cooling profile. Start and end dates matter because both sides of the thermostat register during a normal year.
These labels group NOAA 1991-2020 normals from Kite's primary station, where heating and cooling demand are close enough that neither season sets the character on its own. On a balanced station like Kite, the bands are descriptive ranges rather than an official NOAA classification or a forecast.
