Climate Guides
Climate Insight: Waihee, HI
Based on station USC00519281 feeding NOAA's 1991–2020 climate normals, Waihee, Hawaii averages 74°F a year, ranging from a mean daily high of 80°F to a mean daily low of 68°F. August is typically the warmest month of the year, while February 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.
Rainfall (and snow, where it falls) shapes day-to-day life here as much as temperature does. Waihee sees about 76.2 inches of precipitation a year, with negligible snowfall. Growing-season length varies with elevation and microclimate. On the energy side, 2 heating degree days and 3,421 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Waihee scores 72/100 (Good), a blended measure that weighs temperature mildness, precipitation moderation, and extreme-weather frequency against one another. For planning purposes, look to the monthly tables above: shoulder seasons bring the mildest highs and lows, summer brings August-driven heat, and deep winter brings February-driven cold. Treat every figure here as a thirty-year average rather than a forecast - individual years routinely run warmer, cooler, wetter, or drier than the normal.
