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. Burlington sees about 5.4 days a year at or above 90°F and about 81.5 days with a tenth of an inch of precipitation or more.
