The year, day by day
The year in Victoria Rgnl runs from a mild 43°F around January 5 to 96°F at the peak near August 6, and the normal low never reaches freezing on any date in the record.
When the heat sits
Normal highs reach 90°F from May 30 through September 19, covering 113 dates. The broader mild season, normal highs of 70°F or more, runs February 20 to November 30.
This counts calendar dates whose 1991–2020 normal high reaches 90°F. It is a smaller number than the 90°F+ day counts in the monthly table above, which measure how often the threshold was actually crossed in a typical year. A date can average 88°F and still exceed 90°F in half of all years.
No freezing date
Not one calendar date in the 1991–2020 record carries a normal low at or below 32°F. The coldest normal low of the year is 43°F around January 5.
Where the wet dates fall
The likeliest wet date is September 8, when 34% of years recorded at least a hundredth of an inch. The driest is May 1 at 21%. Summed across the calendar, that is about 95 wet dates a year.
The widest day
October 22 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 24°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Where Victoria Rgnl Stands Nationally
Summers here run among the most heat-heavy normals calendars in the country: on about 113 days a year the normal daily high itself reaches 90°F — a count fewer than one station in ten exceeds.

Victoria Rgnl spreads its precipitation across the year
Neither half of the year dominates here: June through August take 27% of the annual total and December through February 17%, with neither reaching the 35% that would mark a distinct wet season. Victoria Rgnl has no dry season to plan around, though it does carry a 30.4°F seasonal spread.
The gap between the wettest and driest month still matters: May averages 5.2" and February 2.0". The three wettest months together take 35% of the year, against the 25% a perfectly flat distribution would give them.
Shares are computed from this station's own 1991-2020 monthly precipitation normals. "Spread across the year" means neither the June-August nor the December-February share reaches 35%; it describes an average year, not the variability of any single one.
When it rains in Victoria Rgnl, it arrives in quantity
40.4" of precipitation falls across only about 95 wet days here, averaging 0.43 inches each. Fewer days carry more water: the year's total is delivered in comparatively heavy events rather than persistent damp.
- Days with measurable precipitation
- about 95 a year, 26% of all days
- Average depth per wet day
- 0.43 inches
- Most wet days
- September, about 10
- Fewest wet days
- April, about 7
A wet day is one recording at least 0.01 inches. These are 1991-2020 normals: they describe an average year, and a per-day average is not a forecast of any individual storm.

Data-derived climate profile
How Victoria Rgnl's climate pattern fits together
cooling led · moderate · mid swing
Air-conditioning demand is the clearest thermal signal here. Victoria Rgnl accumulates 3,286 cooling degree days, more than twice its 1,168 heating total; the monthly table shows when that imbalance builds rather than treating it as a year-round condition.
Victoria Rgnl's 40.4 inches of annual precipitation falls in PlainClimate's middle band, so “wet” or “dry” is not the leading description. Snowfall is not added to the interpretation because its annual value is missing. Temperature balance and the calendar distribution carry more information than the annual moisture label alone.
August and January mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar in Victoria Rgnl's middle-range seasonal profile. The measured spread is 30.4°F. The annual average is 71°F. Neither the annual mean nor one extreme month represents the full calendar on its own.
The frost-free window extends for about 289 days. That is a long calendar measure, but it is not a forecast and does not combine heat, rainfall, soil, or local elevation into a planting recommendation.
These labels group NOAA 1991-2020 normals from Victoria Rgnl's primary station, so the summer figures are a thirty-year average rather than a ceiling: individual years have run hotter and will again. For Victoria Rgnl that means a descriptive range only — not an official NOAA classification and not a prediction for next summer.

Data Sources
Data source: NOAA U.S. Climate Normals v1.0.1 (1991-2020). All figures on this page are from Victoria Rgnl's primary station: VICTORIA RGNL AP (USW00012912). 2 NOAA stations are mapped to the Victoria Rgnl area; the primary station's record is used for consistency. 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 Victoria Rgnl; facility counts that depend on place identity are therefore an upper bound, not a municipal census.
On this page every temperature, precipitation, and derived score for Victoria Rgnl comes from its primary NOAA station record.
