The year, day by day
Winfield Strother Fld works both ends of the calendar. Normal highs climb to 93°F by July 24 and hold at or above 90°F on 59 dates, then normal lows drop to freezing or below on 99 dates, bottoming at 24°F around January 10.
When the heat sits
Normal highs reach 90°F from June 27 through August 24, covering 59 dates. The broader mild season, normal highs of 70°F or more, runs April 19 to October 19.
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.
The freezing stretch
The normal low stays at or below 32°F into March 2, then returns to freezing around November 25, covering 99 dates in all.
Derived from the normal daily minimum. This is a different measure from the 50%-probability frost dates shown elsewhere on this page, which come from NOAA’s frost product.
Where the wet dates fall
The likeliest wet date is May 24, when 37% of years recorded at least a hundredth of an inch. The driest is January 7 at 14%. Summed across the calendar, that is about 91 wet dates a year.
The widest day
April 3 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 25°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Winfield Strother Fld runs a summer-peaked wet season
38% of Winfield Strother Fld's yearly precipitation falls in June, July and August alone, against the 25% an evenly spread year would give those three months. The wettest month is June at 5.3", on a wide 46.6°F gap between its warmest and coldest month. Warm-season convection and, across the Southwest, the North American monsoon produce this shape: rain arrives in short heavy bursts during the hottest part of the year rather than as long cool-season soaking.
- Wettest three months: June, May, August, taking 40% of the annual total between them.
- Driest month: January at 0.7".
- Winter share: 9% falls in December, January and February.
Shares are computed from this station's own 1991-2020 monthly precipitation normals. A summer-peaked label means the June-August share reaches 35%; it describes timing across an average year, not any single season, and says nothing about how heavy an individual storm can be.
When it rains in Winfield Strother Fld, it arrives in quantity
34.9" of precipitation falls across only about 91 wet days here, averaging 0.38 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 91 a year, 25% of all days
- Average depth per wet day
- 0.38 inches

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 Winfield Strother Fld's climate pattern fits together
heating led · moderate · mid swing
Winfield Strother Fld's energy balance leans toward cold weather: 4,199 annual heating degree days against 1,770 for cooling. Its 46.6°F seasonal range still makes the monthly rows more useful than the annual average alone.
Winfield Strother Fld's frost-free season lasts about 199 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 Winfield Strother Fld's middle-range seasonal profile. The measured spread is 46.6°F. The annual average is 58°F. Neither the annual mean nor one extreme month represents the full calendar on its own.
Winfield Strother Fld's 34.9 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.
These labels group NOAA 1991-2020 normals from Winfield Strother Fld'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 Winfield Strother Fld, 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 Winfield Strother Fld's primary station: WINFIELD STROTHER FLD AP (USW00013932). 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 Winfield Strother Fld; 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 Winfield Strother Fld comes from its primary NOAA station record.
