The year, day by day
Summer here tops out rather than builds: the warmest normal high is 73°F around July 21, short of 90°F on every date, while 232 dates carry a normal low at or below freezing, the coldest 10°F near December 19.
The freezing stretch
The normal low stays at or below 32°F into May 21, then returns to freezing around October 3, covering 232 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.
The widest day
June 28 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 26°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Where Silver Lake Brighton Stands Nationally
Winters bite deep and often: the normal nightly low dips to freezing or below on around 232 nights a year, placing this among the most frost-prone tenth of ranked stations.
Silver Lake Brighton earns one nationally notable standing (outer quintile) against 6,860 NOAA 1991–2020 normals stations, middle-of-the-pack metrics stay silent here.
Monthly Precipitation
Average monthly rainfall
Silver Lake Brighton spreads its precipitation across the year
Neither half of the year dominates here: June through August take 11% of the annual total and December through February 35%, with neither reaching the 35% that would mark a distinct wet season. Silver Lake Brighton has no dry season to plan around, though it does carry a 39.3°F seasonal spread.
The gap between the wettest and driest month still matters: January averages 5.2" and July 1.1". The three wettest months together take 35% of the year, against the 25% a perfectly flat distribution would give them.
Shares are computed from this station's own 1991-2020 monthly precipitation normals. "Spread across the year" means neither the June-August nor the December-February share reaches 35%; it describes an average year, not the variability of any single one.

Data-derived climate profile
How Silver Lake Brighton's climate pattern fits together
heating led · moderate · mid swing
Silver Lake Brighton's energy balance leans toward cold weather: 10,059 annual heating degree days against 10 for cooling. Its 39.3°F seasonal range still makes the monthly rows more useful than the annual average alone.
A frost-free growing-season length is not available for Silver Lake Brighton. That missing field is kept separate from the observed temperature and precipitation record rather than filled from a regional estimate.
July and December mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar in Silver Lake Brighton's middle-range seasonal profile. The measured spread is 39.3°F. The annual average is 37°F. Neither the annual mean nor one extreme month represents the full calendar on its own.
Silver Lake Brighton's 39.9 inches of annual precipitation falls in PlainClimate's middle band, so “wet” or “dry” is not the leading description. Snowfall is not added to the interpretation because its annual value is missing. Temperature balance and the calendar distribution carry more information than the annual moisture label alone.
These labels group NOAA 1991-2020 normals from Silver Lake Brighton's primary station, so the winter figures are a thirty-year average and not a floor: a single hard season can run well below them. Treat each band as a descriptive range for Silver Lake Brighton, not an official NOAA class or a year-ahead forecast.

Data Sources
Data source: NOAA U.S. Climate Normals v1.0.1 (1991-2020). All figures on this page are from Silver Lake Brighton's primary station: SILVER LAKE BRIGHTON (USC00427846). 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 Silver Lake Brighton; 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 Silver Lake Brighton comes from its primary NOAA station record.
