Climate Insight: Paauilo, HI
The NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals describe Paauilo, Hawaii as a location with an annual average temperature of 71°F, ranging from a mean daily high of 80°F to a mean daily low of 61°F. August is typically the warmest month of the year, while March is the coldest. These thirty-year averages, computed from station USC00517312, smooth out year-to-year variability and give a baseline expectation for typical conditions in any given month.
Precipitation patterns matter as much as temperature for anyone planning to live, garden, or travel here. Paauilo receives roughly 90.4 inches of precipitation each year, with seasonal snowfall possible. Growing-season length varies with elevation and microclimate, with the last spring freeze near N/A and the first fall freeze near N/A. For energy use, heating demandreflects the combined cost of keeping interiors comfortable year-round.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Paauilo scores 72/100 (Good), a blended measure that weighs temperature mildness, precipitation moderation, and extreme-weather frequency against one another. Use the monthly tables above to plan around specific windows — shoulder seasons for mild highs and lows, peak summer for August-driven heat, or deep winter for March-driven cold. All figures here are thirty-year averages: any single year may run warmer, wetter, drier, or cooler than the normal, so treat them as planning guidance rather than forecasts.
