Climate Insight: Silver Lake RS, OR
An annual average temperature of 45°F, ranging from a mean daily high of 60°F to a mean daily low of 30°F is what the NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals report for Silver Lake RS, Oregon. July is typically the warmest month of the year, while December is the coldest. That baseline comes from station USC00357817 and thirty years of averaging, so it reflects a typical month rather than any one year's swings.
Anyone planning to live, garden, or travel in Silver Lake RS should weigh precipitation alongside temperature: the annual average runs 10.3 inches, predominantly as rainfall. Growing-season length varies with elevation and microclimate. And on the energy front, 7,340 heating degree days and 164 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Silver Lake RS scores 57/100 (Moderate), a blended measure that weighs temperature mildness, precipitation moderation, and extreme-weather frequency against one another. Shoulder seasons bring the mildest highs and lows in the monthly tables above, summer brings July-driven heat, and winter brings December-driven cold - use that rhythm for planning. These figures are thirty-year averages rather than forecasts, so a specific year may still run warmer, cooler, wetter, or drier than what's shown.
