The year, day by day
The year in Lemoore Reeves runs from a mild 36°F around December 12 to 99°F at the peak near July 20, and the normal low never reaches freezing on any date in the record.
When the heat sits
Normal highs reach 90°F from June 7 through September 23, covering 109 dates. The broader mild season, normal highs of 70°F or more, runs March 21 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 36°F around December 12.
Where the wet dates fall
The likeliest wet date is January 2, when 30% of years recorded at least a hundredth of an inch. The driest is August 5 at 1%. Summed across the calendar, that is about 47 wet dates a year.
The widest day
July 1 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 36°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Where Lemoore Reeves Stands Nationally
Summers here run among the most heat-heavy normals calendars in the country: on about 109 days a year the normal daily high itself reaches 90°F — a count fewer than one station in ten exceeds.
Aridity defines the water calendar: about 7 inches in a normal year lands this among the driest tenth of ranked stations.
Lemoore Reeves earns 2 nationally notable standings (outer quintiles) against 6,860 NOAA 1991–2020 normals stations; only those extremes render.

Lemoore Reeves's wet season runs through the cold months
December, January and February carry 55% of the year's precipitation here, while June through August contribute 1%. That is the cool-season-dominant pattern of the West Coast and the higher inland West, where storm tracks swing south in winter and summer turns dry; the thermometer meanwhile shows a 34.3°F seasonal spread.
- Wettest month
- January, 1.5"
- Driest month
- August, 0.0"
- Wettest three months
- January, March, February (58% of the year)
Shares are computed from this station's own 1991-2020 monthly precipitation normals. A cool-season label means the December-February share reaches 35%. Where snow falls, the monthly figures above report liquid-equivalent precipitation, so a wet winter month is not necessarily a rainy one.
Lemoore Reeves is dry, and what does fall arrives gently
Only about 47 days a year record measurable precipitation here, 13% of the calendar, and they carry 7.2" between them. At roughly 0.15 inches on an average wet day, this is not the damp drizzle of a marine climate; it is an arid record in which precipitation is both uncommon and light when it appears.
The wettest month by count is January at about 9 wet days; the driest is August at about 0.
A low per-event average in a dry record is a statement about typical days only. Arid regions can still take a large share of a year's total from a single convective storm, which a normal cannot show.
A wet day is one recording at least 0.01 inches. These are 1991-2020 normals: they describe an average year, not the extremes within it.

Scarce-water calendar
Where Lemoore Reeves's limited precipitation lands
mixed demand · dry · mid swing
Local precipitation is sparse in this otherwise mixed profile. The station reports 7.2 inches annually, within PlainClimate's dry band. Snowfall is not added to the interpretation because its annual value is missing. The monthly distribution matters because the total alone does not reveal the timing.
July and December mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar in Lemoore Reeves's middle-range seasonal profile. The measured spread is 34.3°F. The annual average is 63°F. Neither the annual mean nor one extreme month represents the full calendar on its own.
Heating and cooling both register in Lemoore Reeves's normal, at 2,485 and 1,778 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.
Lemoore Reeves has a long frost-free window of roughly 271 days, but the dry annual profile is a separate constraint. Growing-season length says when freezes are unlikely, not whether rainfall is sufficient.

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. No exact Gazetteer row for Lemoore Reeves; facility counts that depend on place identity are therefore an upper bound, not a municipal census.
