Climate Division Reference Information
The time-bias-corrected State Climate Division monthly average Temperature, Precipitation, Heating Degree Days and Cooling Degree Days are updated at the end of every month. Monthly averages within each Climate Division are calculated by giving equal weight to stations reporting both Temperature and Precipitation within a division. The data are also compared with the 30-year (1971-2000) average. Read more about the source data
