Climate Insight: N FK RS, CA
N FK RS, California runs an annual average of 59°F, ranging from a mean daily high of 74°F to a mean daily low of 43°F, per NOAA's 1991–2020 climate normals. July is typically the warmest month of the year, while January is the coldest. Drawn from station USC00046252, these thirty-year averages smooth out year-to-year swings into a baseline for what a typical month looks like here.
Rainfall (and snow, where it falls) shapes day-to-day life here as much as temperature does. N FK RS sees about 33.0 inches of precipitation a year, predominantly as rainfall. The frost-free season averages 194 days, which directly shapes the planting calendar and growing potential for the area, with the last spring freeze near April 24 and the first fall freeze near November 4. On the energy side, 3,504 heating degree days and 1,150 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, N FK RS scores 78/100 (Good), a blended measure that weighs temperature mildness, precipitation moderation, and extreme-weather frequency against one another. Shoulder seasons bring the mildest highs and lows in the monthly tables above, summer brings July-driven heat, and winter brings January-driven cold - use that rhythm for planning. These figures are thirty-year averages rather than forecasts, so a specific year may still run warmer, cooler, wetter, or drier than what's shown.
