The year, day by day
Okeene works both ends of the calendar. Normal highs climb to 96°F by July 21 and hold at or above 90°F on 89 dates, then normal lows drop to freezing or below on 84 dates, bottoming at 27°F around January 22.
When the heat sits
Normal highs reach 90°F from June 10 through September 6, covering 89 dates. The broader mild season, normal highs of 70°F or more, runs March 31 to October 27.
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 February 23, then returns to freezing around December 2, covering 84 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 June 1, when 23% of years recorded at least a hundredth of an inch. The driest is January 4 at 7%. Summed across the calendar, that is about 54 wet dates a year.
The widest day
April 9 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 28°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Where Okeene Stands Nationally
Heat is a defining feature of the normals calendar — the normal daily high reaches 90°F on roughly 89 days a year, more than four out of five ranked stations record.

Okeene spreads its precipitation across the year
Neither half of the year dominates here: June through August take 34% of the annual total and December through February 13%, with neither reaching the 35% that would mark a distinct wet season. Okeene has no dry season to plan around, though it does carry a 44.4°F seasonal spread.
The gap between the wettest and driest month still matters: May averages 4.4" and January 0.9". The three wettest months together take 39% 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 Okeene, it arrives in quantity
30.5" of precipitation falls across only about 54 wet days here, averaging 0.56 inches each. Fewer days carry more water: the year's total is delivered in comparatively heavy events rather than persistent damp.

- about 54 a year, 15% of all days
- Average depth per wet day
- 0.56 inches
- Most wet days
- May, about 7
- Fewest wet days
- January, about 2
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.
Snow reaches Okeene, but rarely amounts to much
The normals record 10.3 inches of snow a year here, most likely in December. That is a real but marginal amount: enough that snow is part of the local record, not enough to define the winter.
A figure in this range usually reflects a handful of events that melt quickly rather than a season of accumulation; about 4 days a year record any measurable snow at all.
NOAA 1991-2020 normals. An average across thirty years can smooth away a single heavy winter, so a small annual figure does not mean a significant snowfall is impossible.

Data-derived climate profile
How Okeene's climate pattern fits together
mixed demand · moderate · mid swing
July and January mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar in Okeene's middle-range seasonal profile. The measured spread is 44.4°F. The annual average is 61°F. Neither the annual mean nor one extreme month represents the full calendar on its own.
Heating and cooling both register in Okeene's normal, at 3,526 and 2,095 degree days respectively. Neither total exceeds the other by more than two to one, so the record is better read as a mixed-demand calendar than as heating-led or cooling-led.
A roughly 209-day frost-free season sits inside this mixed heating-and-cooling profile. Start and end dates matter because both sides of the thermostat register during a normal year.
Okeene's 30.6 inches of annual precipitation falls in PlainClimate's middle band, so “wet” or “dry” is not the leading description. Annual snowfall totals 10.3 inches. Temperature balance and the calendar distribution carry more information than the annual moisture label alone.
These labels group NOAA 1991-2020 normals from Okeene's primary station, where heating and cooling demand are close enough that neither season sets the character on its own. On a balanced station like Okeene, the bands are descriptive ranges rather than an official NOAA classification or a forecast.
