The year, day by day
Paulina works both ends of the calendar. Normal highs climb to 91°F by July 25 and hold at or above 90°F on 18 dates, then normal lows drop to freezing or below on 218 dates, bottoming at 17°F around December 15.
When the heat sits
Normal highs reach 90°F from July 19 through August 5, covering 18 dates. The broader mild season, normal highs of 70°F or more, runs May 20 to October 8.
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 May 1, then returns to freezing around September 27, covering 218 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.
The widest day
August 6 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 46°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Where Paulina Stands Nationally
Winters bite deep and often: the normal nightly low dips to freezing or below on around 218 nights a year, placing this among the most frost-prone tenth of ranked stations.
Day-to-night contrast is extreme by national standards — the widest normal daily swing reaches about 46°F, sharper than nine in ten ranked stations see.
Paulina earns 2 nationally notable standings (outer quintiles) against 6,860 NOAA 1991–2020 normals stations; only those extremes render.

Data-derived climate profile
How Paulina's climate pattern fits together
heating led · mid swing
Paulina's energy balance leans toward cold weather: 6,897 annual heating degree days against 191 for cooling. Its 38.0°F seasonal range still makes the monthly rows more useful than the annual average alone.
A frost-free growing-season length is not available for Paulina. That missing field is kept separate from the observed temperature and precipitation record rather than filled from a regional estimate.
July and December mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar in Paulina's middle-range seasonal profile. The measured spread is 38.0°F. The annual average is 47°F. Neither the annual mean nor one extreme month represents the full calendar on its own.
A moisture-range label is withheld because Paulina's annual precipitation total is unavailable. Monthly source values remain visible where NOAA provides them, and no annual amount is reconstructed from incomplete data.
These labels group NOAA 1991-2020 normals from Paulina'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 Paulina, not an official NOAA class or a year-ahead forecast.

Data Sources
Data source: NOAA U.S. Climate Normals v1.0.1 (1991-2020). All figures on this page are from Paulina's primary station: PAULINA (USC00356500). For informational purposes only.
Place identity: U.S. Census Bureau 2024 Gazetteer places. The conservative exact name-and-state crosswalk finds no Census place match, so PlainClimate treats this as a station-mapped location and does not claim it is a municipality. No exact Gazetteer row for Paulina; facility counts that depend on place identity are therefore an upper bound, not a municipal census.
On this page every temperature, precipitation, and derived score for Paulina comes from its primary NOAA station record. No figure on this page is typed in by an editor - each value is rendered from NOAA 1991-2020 U.S. Climate Normals.
