Climate Guides

Climate Insight: Lamar RS, WY

An annual average temperature of 37°F, ranging from a mean daily high of 52°F to a mean daily low of 22°F is what the NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals report for Lamar RS, Wyoming. July is typically the warmest month of the year, while January is the coldest. That baseline comes from station USC00485355 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. Lamar RS sees about 18.0 inches of precipitation a year, predominantly as rainfall. Growing-season length varies with elevation and microclimate. On the energy side, 10,083 heating degree days and 23 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.

On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Lamar RS scores 47/100 (Moderate), a blended measure that weighs temperature mildness, precipitation moderation, and extreme-weather frequency against one another. For planning purposes, look to the monthly tables above: shoulder seasons bring the mildest highs and lows, summer brings July-driven heat, and deep winter brings January-driven cold. Treat every figure here as a thirty-year average rather than a forecast - individual years routinely run warmer, cooler, wetter, or drier than the normal.
