Climate Insight: Lowman, ID
Based on station USC00105414 feeding NOAA's 1991–2020 climate normals, Lowman, Idaho averages 44°F a year, ranging from a mean daily high of 59°F to a mean daily low of 30°F. July is typically the warmest month of the year, while December is the coldest. Because these figures are thirty-year averages rather than any single year's readings, they describe the typical month, not a forecast for it.
Precipitation patterns matter as much as temperature for anyone planning to live, garden, or travel here. Lowman receives roughly an uncharted amount of precipitation each year, predominantly as rainfall. The frost-free season averages 90 days, which directly shapes the planting calendar and growing potential for the area, with the last spring freeze near June 6 and the first fall freeze near September 4. For energy use, 7,685 heating degree days and 148 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Lowman scores 39/100 (Below Average), a blended measure that weighs temperature mildness, precipitation moderation, and extreme-weather frequency against one another. The monthly tables above are the practical planning tool: mild highs and lows land in the shoulder seasons, July-driven heat peaks in summer, and December-driven cold sets in over deep winter. These are thirty-year averages, not a forecast - any single year can run warmer, wetter, drier, or cooler than the normal.
