How to read Fargo 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 Fargo Hector Intl Ap, 2.9 km from the centre of Fargo. 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. Fargo sees about 11.6 days a year at or above 90°F and about 48.6 days with a tenth of an inch of precipitation or more.
