Climate Insight: Tiffin, OH
An annual average temperature of 51°F, ranging from a mean daily high of 60°F to a mean daily low of 42°F is what the NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals report for Tiffin, Ohio. July is typically the warmest month of the year, while January is the coldest. That baseline comes from station USC00338313 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 Tiffin should weigh precipitation alongside temperature: the annual average runs 38.7 inches, with 29.5 inches typically falling as snow. The frost-free season averages 183 days, which directly shapes the planting calendar and growing potential for the area, with the last spring freeze near April 23 and the first fall freeze near October 23. And on the energy front, 5,992 heating degree days and 873 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Tiffin scores 63/100 (Good), 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 January-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.
