The year, day by day
The year in Port Mansfield runs from a mild 50°F around January 5 to 92°F at the peak near August 10, and the normal low never reaches freezing on any date in the record.
When the heat sits
Normal highs reach 90°F from June 17 through September 5, covering 81 dates. The broader mild season, normal highs of 70°F or more, runs February 8 to December 17.
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.
No freezing date
Not one calendar date in the 1991–2020 record carries a normal low at or below 32°F. The coldest normal low of the year is 50°F around January 5.
Where the wet dates fall
The likeliest wet date is September 16, when 26% of years recorded at least a hundredth of an inch. The driest is August 3 at 8%. Summed across the calendar, that is about 59 wet dates a year.
The widest day
December 23 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 18°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Where Port Mansfield Stands Nationally
Among the steadiest day-night climates ranked: even the widest normal daily swing holds to roughly 18°F.
Heat is a defining feature of the normals calendar — the normal daily high reaches 90°F on roughly 81 days a year, more than four out of five ranked stations record.

Port Mansfield spreads its precipitation across the year
Neither half of the year dominates here: June through August take 22% of the annual total and December through February 16%, with neither reaching the 35% that would mark a distinct wet season. Port Mansfield has no dry season to plan around, though it does carry an unusually narrow 25.7°F seasonal spread.
The gap between the wettest and driest month still matters: September averages 5.4" and January 1.1". The three wettest months together take 43% 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 Port Mansfield, it arrives in quantity
25.3" of precipitation falls across only about 59 wet days here, averaging 0.43 inches each. Fewer days carry more water: the year's total is delivered in comparatively heavy events rather than persistent damp.
- Days with measurable precipitation
- about 59 a year, 16% of all days
- Average depth per wet day
- 0.43 inches
- Most wet days
- September, about 9
- Fewest wet days
- August, about 3
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 Port Mansfield, but rarely amounts to much
The normals record 0.1 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.
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 Port Mansfield's climate pattern fits together
cooling led · moderate · low swing
Warm-season load persists through a relatively even calendar in Port Mansfield. Cooling totals 3,755 degree days, more than double the 674 heating measure, and the 25.7°F seasonal range is compact rather than sharply divided.
Port Mansfield's 25.3 inches of annual precipitation falls in PlainClimate's middle band, so “wet” or “dry” is not the leading description. Recorded annual snowfall is negligible. Temperature balance and the calendar distribution carry more information than the annual moisture label alone.
Temperature varies within a narrow 25.7°F band across the normal year. August and January mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar. The annual average is 73°F. Monthly rows still matter, but they refine a steady profile rather than reveal two climatic extremes.
A frost-free growing-season length is not available for Port Mansfield. That missing field is kept separate from the observed temperature and precipitation record rather than filled from a regional estimate.
These labels group NOAA 1991-2020 normals from Port Mansfield's primary station, so the summer figures are a thirty-year average rather than a ceiling: individual years have run hotter and will again. For Port Mansfield that means a descriptive range only — not an official NOAA classification and not a prediction for next summer.
