Data-derived climate profile

How St James 4ssw Beaver's climate pattern fits together

heating led · mid swing

St James 4ssw Beaver's energy balance leans toward cold weather: 7,711 annual heating degree days against 273 for cooling. Its 46.2°F seasonal range still makes the monthly rows more useful than the annual average alone.

St James 4ssw Beaver's frost-free season lasts about 161 days, a middle-length window whose endpoints matter more than the annual average. It describes freeze probability, not year-specific planting conditions.

July and January mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar in St James 4ssw Beaver's middle-range seasonal profile. The measured spread is 46.2°F. The annual average is 45°F. Neither the annual mean nor one extreme month represents the full calendar on its own.

A moisture-range label is withheld because St James 4ssw Beaver's annual precipitation total is unavailable. Monthly source values remain visible where NOAA provides them, and no annual amount is reconstructed from incomplete data.

These labels group NOAA 1991-2020 normals from St James 4ssw Beaver'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 St James 4ssw Beaver, 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 St James 4ssw Beaver's primary station: ST JAMES 4SSW BEAVER (USC00207277). 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 St James 4ssw Beaver; facility counts that depend on place identity are therefore an upper bound, not a municipal census.
