Ryndon's normals sit in a dry climate class: BSk
Precipitation is low relative to temperature but above true desert thresholds: cold semi-arid steppe (BSk). Class BSk is the Peel et al. (2007) label for this station's monthly mean temperature and precipitation normals: dry (arid or semi-arid), specifically cold semi-arid steppe.

The year, day by day
Ryndon works both ends of the calendar. Normal highs climb to 94°F by July 23 and hold at or above 90°F on 45 dates, then normal lows drop to freezing or below on 203 dates, bottoming at 11°F around January 7.
When the heat sits
Normal highs reach 90°F from July 5 through August 18, covering 45 dates. The broader mild season, normal highs of 70°F or more, runs May 18 to October 9.
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 April 22, then returns to freezing around October 3, covering 203 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.
Where the wet dates fall
The likeliest wet date is December 30, when 26% of years recorded at least a hundredth of an inch. The driest is July 8 at 8%. Summed across the calendar, that is about 62 wet dates a year.
The widest day
August 27 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 43°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Where Ryndon Stands Nationally
Winters bite deep and often: the normal nightly low dips to freezing or below on around 203 nights a year, placing this among the most frost-prone tenth of ranked stations.
Aridity defines the water calendar: about 10 inches in a normal year lands this among the driest tenth of ranked stations.
Ryndon earns 2 nationally notable standings (outer quintiles) against 6,860 NOAA 1991–2020 normals stations; only those extremes render.

Ryndon's wet season runs through the cold months
December, January and February carry 35% of the year's precipitation here, while June through August contribute 15%. That is the cool-season-dominant pattern of the West Coast and the higher inland West, where storm tracks swing south in winter and summer turns dry; the thermometer meanwhile shows a wide 47.2°F gap between its warmest and coldest month.
- Wettest month
- December, 1.6"
- Driest month
- August, 0.3"
- Wettest three months
- December, January, May (37% of the year)
Shares are computed from this station's own 1991-2020 monthly precipitation normals. A cool-season label means the December-February share reaches 35%. Where snow falls, the monthly figures above report liquid-equivalent precipitation, so a wet winter month is not necessarily a rainy one.
Ryndon is dry, and what does fall arrives gently
Only about 62 days a year record measurable precipitation here, 17% of the calendar, and they carry 10.0" between them. At roughly 0.16 inches on an average wet day, this is not the damp drizzle of a marine climate; it is an arid record in which precipitation is both uncommon and light when it appears.
The wettest month by count is December at about 8 wet days; the driest is August at about 2.
A low per-event average in a dry record is a statement about typical days only. Arid regions can still take a large share of a year's total from a single convective storm, which a normal cannot show.
A wet day is one recording at least 0.01 inches. These are 1991-2020 normals: they describe an average year, not the extremes within it.

Scarce-water calendar
Where Ryndon's limited precipitation lands
heating led · dry · mid swing
Ryndon's energy balance leans toward cold weather: 7,068 annual heating degree days against 448 for cooling. Its 47.2°F seasonal range still makes the monthly rows more useful than the annual average alone.
Only about 97 days are frost-free in a normal year. That short interval is consistent with the cold-season signal, but the measure does not predict the exact first or last freeze in any one year.
July and January mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar in Ryndon's middle-range seasonal profile. The measured spread is 47.2°F. The annual average is 47°F. Neither the annual mean nor one extreme month represents the full calendar on its own.
Ryndon's cold-season load does not imply a wet climate. Annual precipitation is 10.0 inches, which places the station in PlainClimate's dry range. Snowfall is not added to the interpretation because its annual value is missing. The snowfall and rainfall fields should be read separately rather than inferred from temperature.

Data Sources
Data source: NOAA U.S. Climate Normals v1.0.1 (1991-2020). All figures on this page are from Ryndon's primary station: RYNDON (USC00267188). 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 Ryndon; 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 Ryndon comes from its primary NOAA station record.
