How to read Indianapolis climate normals

What a climate normal is, and what it is not.

A normal is the average of thirty years of daily observations at one station — here Indianapolis Eagle Creek Ap, 18.4 km from the centre of Indianapolis. It describes a typical year, so any single year will run warmer, cooler, wetter or drier. Readings taken at an airport on the edge of town usually sit a degree or two below a dense downtown on summer nights. Indianapolis sees about 9.7 days a year at or above 90°F.
