Climate Insight: Orovada, NV
An annual average temperature of 49°F, ranging from a mean daily high of 66°F to a mean daily low of 33°F is what the NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals report for Orovada, Nevada. July is typically the warmest month of the year, while December is the coldest. That baseline comes from station USC00265818 and thirty years of averaging, so it reflects a typical month rather than any one year's swings.
Precipitation patterns matter as much as temperature for anyone planning to live, garden, or travel here. Orovada receives roughly 10.2 inches of precipitation each year, with 15.7 inches typically falling as snow. The frost-free season averages 101 days, which directly shapes the planting calendar and growing potential for the area, with the last spring freeze near June 2 and the first fall freeze near September 11. For energy use, 6,202 heating degree days and 503 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Orovada scores 54/100 (Moderate), 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 December-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.
