What Saxon's climate means for you
Saxon runs 41°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.
The NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals describe Saxon, Wisconsin as a location with an annual average temperature of 41°F, ranging from a mean daily high of 51°F to a mean daily low of 32°F. July is typically the warmest month of the year, while January is the coldest. These thirty-year averages, computed from station USC00473332, smooth out year-to-year variability and give a baseline expectation for typical conditions in any given month.
Rainfall (and snow, where it falls) shapes day-to-day life here as much as temperature does. Saxon sees about 37.5 inches of precipitation a year, with 134.4 inches typically falling as snow. The frost-free season averages 131 days, which directly shapes the planting calendar and growing potential for the area, with the last spring freeze near May 23 and the first fall freeze near October 1. On the energy side, 8,920 heating degree days and 309 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Saxon scores 44/100 (Moderate), a blended measure that weighs temperature mildness, precipitation moderation, and extreme-weather frequency against one another. Use the monthly tables above to plan around specific windows, shoulder seasons for mild highs and lows, peak summer for July-driven heat, or deep winter for January-driven cold. All figures here are thirty-year averages: any single year may run warmer, wetter, drier, or cooler than the normal, so treat them as planning guidance rather than forecasts.
