The year, day by day
The year in Quitman runs from a mild 37°F around January 13 to 92°F at the peak near July 9, and the normal low never reaches freezing on any date in the record.
When the heat sits
Normal highs reach 90°F from June 3 through September 3, covering 93 dates. The broader mild season, normal highs of 70°F or more, runs February 26 to November 22.
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 37°F around January 13.
The widest day
April 26 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 28°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Where Quitman Stands Nationally
Summers here run among the most heat-heavy normals calendars in the country: on about 93 days a year the normal daily high itself reaches 90°F — a count fewer than one station in ten exceeds.
Quitman earns one nationally notable standing (outer quintile) against 6,860 NOAA 1991–2020 normals stations, middle-of-the-pack metrics stay silent here.

Data-derived climate profile
How Quitman's climate pattern fits together
mixed demand · mid swing
July and January mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar in Quitman's middle-range seasonal profile. The measured spread is 30.9°F. The annual average is 67°F. Neither the annual mean nor one extreme month represents the full calendar on its own.
Heating and cooling both register in Quitman's normal, at 1,747 and 2,354 degree days respectively. Neither total exceeds the other by more than two to one, so the record is better read as a mixed-demand calendar than as heating-led or cooling-led.
The frost-free window extends for about 252 days. That is a long calendar measure, but it is not a forecast and does not combine heat, rainfall, soil, or local elevation into a planting recommendation.
A moisture-range label is withheld because Quitman'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 Quitman's primary station, where heating and cooling demand are close enough that neither season sets the character on its own. On a balanced station like Quitman, the bands are descriptive ranges rather than an official NOAA classification or a forecast.
