What S FK State Rec Area's climate means for you
S FK State Rec Area runs 45°F a year - peaking in July, coldest in January.
These are 30-year NOAA normals (1991–2020) - the typical year, not a forecast for any specific season.
In S FK State Rec Area, Nevada, the NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals put the annual average temperature at 45°F, ranging from a mean daily high of 63°F to a mean daily low of 27°F. July is typically the warmest month of the year, while January is the coldest. As thirty-year averages computed from station USC00267690, these numbers smooth out year-to-year noise into a working baseline for a typical month.
S FK State Rec Area averages 9.5 inches of precipitation a year, with 19.3 inches typically falling as snow, and that matters as much to daily life here as temperature does. Growing-season length varies with elevation and microclimate. As for energy demand, 7,461 heating degree days and 268 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, S FK State Rec Area scores 47/100 (Moderate), a blended measure that weighs temperature mildness, precipitation moderation, and extreme-weather frequency against one another. The monthly tables above turn that into a planning tool: expect the mildest highs and lows in the shoulder seasons, July-driven heat at the peak of summer, and January-driven cold at the depth of winter. Every number here is a thirty-year average, not a forecast, so any given year can and does run warmer, cooler, wetter, or drier than the normal.
