What Red River RS's climate means for you
Red River RS runs 41°F a year - peaking in July, coldest in December.
These are 30-year NOAA normals (1991–2020) - the typical year, not a forecast for any specific season.
Red River RS, Idaho runs an annual average of 41°F, ranging from a mean daily high of 56°F to a mean daily low of 27°F, per NOAA's 1991–2020 climate normals. July is typically the warmest month of the year, while December is the coldest. Drawn from station USC00107563, these thirty-year averages smooth out year-to-year swings into a baseline for what a typical month looks like here.
Red River RS averages an uncharted amount of precipitation a year, predominantly as rainfall, and that matters as much to daily life here as temperature does. Growing-season length varies with elevation and microclimate. As for energy demand, 8,633 heating degree days and 46 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Red River RS scores 42/100 (Moderate), a blended measure that weighs temperature mildness, precipitation moderation, and extreme-weather frequency against one another. The monthly tables above are the practical planning tool: mild highs and lows land in the shoulder seasons, July-driven heat peaks in summer, and December-driven cold sets in over deep winter. These are thirty-year averages, not a forecast - any single year can run warmer, wetter, drier, or cooler than the normal.
