What Palacios Muni's climate means for you
Palacios Muni runs 72°F a year - peaking in August, coldest in January.
These are 30-year NOAA normals (1991–2020) - the typical year, not a forecast for any specific season.
The NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals describe Palacios Muni, Texas as a location with an annual average temperature of 72°F, ranging from a mean daily high of 80°F to a mean daily low of 64°F. August is typically the warmest month of the year, while January is the coldest. These thirty-year averages, computed from station USW00012935, smooth out year-to-year variability and give a baseline expectation for typical conditions in any given month.
Palacios Muni averages 43.1 inches of precipitation a year, predominantly as rainfall, and that matters as much to daily life here as temperature does. The frost-free season averages 319 days, which directly shapes the planting calendar and growing potential for the area, with the last spring freeze near February 1 and the first fall freeze near December 17. As for energy demand, 1,001 heating degree days and 3,522 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Palacios Muni scores 95/100 (Excellent), a blended measure that weighs temperature mildness, precipitation moderation, and extreme-weather frequency against one another. For planning purposes, look to the monthly tables above: shoulder seasons bring the mildest highs and lows, summer brings August-driven heat, and deep winter brings January-driven cold. Treat every figure here as a thirty-year average rather than a forecast - individual years routinely run warmer, cooler, wetter, or drier than the normal.
