Climate Insight: Solomons, MD
Based on station USC00188405 feeding NOAA's 1991–2020 climate normals, Solomons, Maryland averages 59°F a year, ranging from a mean daily high of 67°F to a mean daily low of 51°F. July is typically the warmest month of the year, while January is the coldest. Because these figures are thirty-year averages rather than any single year's readings, they describe the typical month, not a forecast for it.
Beyond temperature, Solomons averages an uncharted amount of precipitation annually, predominantly as rainfall - a real factor for anyone planning to live, garden, or travel here. The frost-free season averages 249 days, which directly shapes the planting calendar and growing potential for the area, with the last spring freeze near March 22 and the first fall freeze near November 26. Turning to energy use, 3,804 heating degree days and 1,619 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Solomons scores 67/100 (Good), 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.
