The year, day by day
Summer here tops out rather than builds: the warmest normal high is 87°F around July 5, short of 90°F on every date, while 121 dates carry a normal low at or below freezing, the coldest 18°F near January 20.
The freezing stretch
The normal low stays at or below 32°F into March 17, then returns to freezing around November 18, covering 121 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 May 4, when 42% of years recorded at least a hundredth of an inch. The driest is August 26 at 24%. Summed across the calendar, that is about 117 wet dates a year.
The widest day
September 21 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 28°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Neoga spreads its precipitation across the year
Neither half of the year dominates here: June through August take 29% of the annual total and December through February 18%, with neither reaching the 35% that would mark a distinct wet season. Neoga has no dry season to plan around, though it does carry a wide 48.1°F gap between its warmest and coldest month.
The gap between the wettest and driest month still matters: June averages 4.8" and February 2.1". The three wettest months together take 34% 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 Neoga, it arrives in quantity
41.9" of precipitation falls across only about 117 wet days here, averaging 0.36 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 117 a year, 32% of all days
- Average depth per wet day
- 0.36 inches
- Most wet days
- May, about 13

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 Neoga's climate pattern fits together
heating led · moderate · mid swing
Neoga's energy balance leans toward cold weather: 5,272 annual heating degree days against 1,168 for cooling. Its 48.1°F seasonal range still makes the monthly rows more useful than the annual average alone.
Neoga's frost-free season lasts about 187 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 Neoga's middle-range seasonal profile. The measured spread is 48.1°F. The annual average is 54°F. Neither the annual mean nor one extreme month represents the full calendar on its own.
Neoga's 41.9 inches of annual precipitation falls in PlainClimate's middle band, so “wet” or “dry” is not the leading description. Snowfall is not added to the interpretation because its annual value is missing. Temperature balance and the calendar distribution carry more information than the annual moisture label alone.
These labels group NOAA 1991-2020 normals from Neoga's primary station, so the winter figures are a thirty-year average and not a floor: a single hard season can run well below them. Treat each band as a descriptive range for Neoga, not an official NOAA class or a year-ahead forecast.
