The year, day by day
Myton works both ends of the calendar. Normal highs climb to 92°F by July 19 and hold at or above 90°F on 38 dates, then normal lows drop to freezing or below on 175 dates, bottoming at 6°F around January 11.
When the heat sits
Normal highs reach 90°F from July 2 through August 8, covering 38 dates. The broader mild season, normal highs of 70°F or more, runs May 7 to October 6.
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.
The freezing stretch
The normal low stays at or below 32°F into April 12, then returns to freezing around October 21, covering 175 dates in all.
Derived from the normal daily minimum. This is a different measure from the 50%-probability frost dates shown elsewhere on this page, which come from NOAA’s frost product.
Where the wet dates fall
The likeliest wet date is August 27, when 14% of years recorded at least a hundredth of an inch. The driest is March 10 at 6%. Summed across the calendar, that is about 35 wet dates a year.
The widest day
June 24 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 36°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Where Myton Stands Nationally
Aridity defines the water calendar: about 7 inches in a normal year lands this among the driest tenth of ranked stations.
Daily temperature swings run wider than most of the country, peaking near 36°F between the normal high and low.
Myton earns 2 nationally notable standings (outer quintiles) against 6,860 NOAA 1991–2020 normals stations; only those extremes render.

Myton spreads its precipitation across the year
Neither half of the year dominates here: June through August take 22% of the annual total and December through February 18%, with neither reaching the 35% that would mark a distinct wet season. Myton has no dry season to plan around, though it does carry a wide 55.2°F gap between its warmest and coldest month.
The gap between the wettest and driest month still matters: September averages 1.1" and March 0.3". The three wettest months together take 41% 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.
Myton is dry, and what does fall arrives gently
Only about 35 days a year record measurable precipitation here, 10% of the calendar, and they carry 7.0" between them. At roughly 0.20 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 May at about 5 wet days; the driest is March at about 2.
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 Myton's limited precipitation lands
heating led · dry · high swing
Winter and seasonal range jointly define this record. Myton logs 6,837 heating degree days, more than twice its 685 cooling total, while the typical coldest-to-warmest-month gap reaches 55.2°F. The annual mean therefore compresses two materially different seasons.
Myton's frost-free season lasts about 151 days, a middle-length window whose endpoints matter more than the annual average. It describes freeze probability, not year-specific planting conditions.
July and January mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar in this dry, high-range record. The gap is 55.2°F, so a single annual figure is especially lossy; the annual average is 48°f. Compare monthly temperature and precipitation together before drawing a seasonal conclusion about Myton.
Myton's cold-season load does not imply a wet climate. Annual precipitation is 7.0 inches, which places the station in PlainClimate's dry range. Snowfall is not added to the interpretation because its annual value is missing. The snowfall and rainfall fields should be read separately rather than inferred from temperature.
