The year, day by day
The year in Mobile Dwtn runs from a mild 42°F around January 10 to 92°F at the peak near July 30, and the normal low never reaches freezing on any date in the record.
When the heat sits
Normal highs reach 90°F from June 14 through September 9, covering 88 dates. The broader mild season, normal highs of 70°F or more, runs March 7 to November 20.
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 42°F around January 10.
Where the wet dates fall
The likeliest wet date is July 25, when 47% of years recorded at least a hundredth of an inch. The driest is May 5 at 27%. Summed across the calendar, that is about 134 wet dates a year.
The widest day
November 6 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 22°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Where Mobile Dwtn Stands Nationally
This is one of the wettest normals climates ranked: about 61 inches of precipitation in a normal year, a total fewer than one station in ten surpasses.
Heat is a defining feature of the normals calendar — the normal daily high reaches 90°F on roughly 88 days a year, more than four out of five ranked stations record.
Mobile Dwtn earns 2 nationally notable standings (outer quintiles) against 6,860 NOAA 1991–2020 normals stations; only those extremes render.

Mobile Dwtn spreads its precipitation across the year
Neither half of the year dominates here: June through August take 32% of the annual total and December through February 24%, with neither reaching the 35% that would mark a distinct wet season. Mobile Dwtn has no dry season to plan around, though it does carry a 31.3°F seasonal spread.
The gap between the wettest and driest month still matters: August averages 7.1" and February 3.8". The three wettest months together take 32% 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.
When it rains in Mobile Dwtn, it arrives in quantity
60.5" of precipitation falls across only about 133 wet days here, averaging 0.45 inches each. Fewer days carry more water: the year's total is delivered in comparatively heavy events rather than persistent damp.
- Days with measurable precipitation
- about 133 a year, 37% of all days
- Average depth per wet day
- 0.45 inches
- Most wet days
- July, about 14

A wet day is one recording at least 0.01 inches. These are 1991-2020 normals: they describe an average year, and a per-day average is not a forecast of any individual storm.

Data-derived climate profile
How Mobile Dwtn's climate pattern fits together
cooling led · wet · mid swing
Air-conditioning demand is the clearest thermal signal here. Mobile Dwtn accumulates 2,931 cooling degree days, more than twice its 1,404 heating total; the monthly table shows when that imbalance builds rather than treating it as a year-round condition.
Warm-season demand is paired with a wet annual normal: 60.5 inches of precipitation at Mobile Dwtn. Snowfall is not added to the interpretation because its annual value is missing. The month-by-month bars distinguish a concentrated wet season from moisture spread across the calendar.
August and January mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar in Mobile Dwtn's middle-range seasonal profile. The measured spread is 31.3°F. The annual average is 69°F. Neither the annual mean nor one extreme month represents the full calendar on its own.
The frost-free window extends for about 288 days. That is a long calendar measure, but it is not a forecast and does not combine heat, rainfall, soil, or local elevation into a planting recommendation.
These labels group NOAA 1991-2020 normals from Mobile Dwtn's primary station, so the summer figures are a thirty-year average rather than a ceiling: individual years have run hotter and will again. For Mobile Dwtn that means a descriptive range only — not an official NOAA classification and not a prediction for next summer.

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 Mobile Dwtn; facility counts that depend on place identity are therefore an upper bound, not a municipal census.
