July is typically the warmest month of the year, while January is the coldest.

Anyone planning to live, garden, or travel in Vernon should weigh precipitation alongside temperature: the annual average runs 10.6 inches, with 36.4 inches typically falling as snow. The frost-free season averages 111 days, which directly shapes the planting calendar and growing potential for the area, with the last spring freeze near June 1 and the first fall freeze near September 20. And on the energy front, 7,045 heating degree days and 473 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Vernon scores 49/100 (Moderate), 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.
