HOME> Outlook Maps> Seasonal Outlooks> DJF Normals   Climatological Data for December through February (1981-2010 normals period) Numerical values in these tables are regionally averaged for each of 102 Climate Divisions in the Contiguous 48 United States (CONUS), 24 Alaska cities, and 4 Hawaii cities, during the given period of record. The locations given for the CD regional values in the CONUS are purely for reference & represent points as near to the centroid of the region as possible; they should not be taken to represent any one specific location within the region. Values for Alaska & Hawaii are actual station values & represent the given locale.   Temperature (deg F) Precipitation (inches)   Below- Normal Near- Normal Above- Normal Below- Median Near- Median Above- Median Aberdeen, SD 22.11 23.70 25.29 1.23 1.39 1.58 Adak Island, AK 32.44 32.84 33.24 10.56 12.88 14.50 Alamosa, CO 27.00 28.08 29.16 2.03 2.36 2.65 Albuquerque, NM 34.45 35.22 35.99 1.54 2.13 2.77 Amarillo, TX 38.96 39.89 40.82 1.33 1.72 2.65 Anchorage, AK 17.96 18.61 19.26 2.08 2.47 2.82 Annette Island, AK 36.71 37.14 37.57 25.72 27.59 29.68 Atlanta, GA 44.73 45.57 46.41 11.32 12.75 14.52 Barrow, AK -8.32 -7.99 -7.66 0.24 0.31 0.50 Bethel, AK 7.97 8.89 9.80 1.69 2.13 2.60 Bettles, AK -5.97 -5.36 -4.76 1.69 2.04 2.67 Big Delta, AK 0.78 1.70 2.63 0.62 0.87 1.50 Billings, MT 23.31 24.90 26.49 1.45 1.67 1.97 Birmingham, AL 44.37 45.22 46.07 13.64 15.29 16.64 Bismarck, ND 13.25 15.44 17.62 0.94 1.10 1.42 Blanding, UT 30.28 31.56 32.84 1.49 1.88 2.24 Boise, ID 28.94 30.37 31.80 2.64 3.84 4.58 Brownsville, TX 56.51 57.44 58.37 2.42 3.25 3.95 Buffalo, NY 25.05 26.30 27.55 7.41 7.80 8.31 Burlington, VT 33.31 34.39 35.47 8.13 9.03 10.12 Burns, OR 30.56 31.62 32.68 2.90 3.90 4.61 Charleston, WV 32.27 33.30 34.33 8.37 9.33 10.19 Charlotte, NC 42.23 43.11 43.99 9.32 10.67 12.09   Temperature (deg F) Precipitation (inches)   Below- Normal Near- Normal Above- Normal Below- Median Near- Median Above- Median Cincinnati, OH 34.14 35.19 36.24 9.56 10.38 11.25 Cold Bay, AK 29.19 29.60 30.01 8.90 9.73 10.82 Columbus, OH 28.80 30.04 31.28 6.87 7.56 8.22 Cordova, AK 26.97 27.65 28.33 16.86 20.57 24.28 Dallas-Fort Worth, TX 46.04 46.96 47.88 5.64 6.72 7.90 Denver, CO 27.04 28.29 29.54 1.35 1.50 1.62 Des Moines, IA 20.91 22.61 24.31 3.03 3.46 4.01 Detroit, MI 25.45 26.77 28.09 5.16 6.16 7.13 Devil's Lake, ND 22.01 23.45 24.89 2.58 3.36 4.13 Dodge City, KS 32.00 33.26 34.52 1.16 1.45 2.00 Edwards AFB, CA 48.46 49.25 50.04 1.96 2.55 3.34 Elkhart, KS 19.51 20.89 22.27 1.77 2.06 2.44 Elko, NV 25.65 26.97 28.29 2.19 2.63 3.52 El Paso, TX 41.87 42.56 43.25 1.30 1.64 2.91 Emporia, KS 32.90 34.15 35.40 3.63 4.55 5.55 Eureka, CA 44.39 45.01 45.63 17.43 20.73 26.34 Evansville, IN 34.54 35.63 36.72 9.55 11.19 12.38 Fairbanks, AK -4.62 -3.94 -3.26 1.05 1.33 1.73 Fargo, ND 9.24 11.44 13.64 1.22 1.40 1.62 Fort Smith, AR 37.81 38.84 39.87 8.10 8.91 10.56 Fresno, CA 45.11 45.70 46.29 7.74 9.11 11.98 Glasgow, MT 16.69 18.75 20.81 0.85 1.00 1.18 Grand Island, NE 25.02 26.62 28.22 1.66 2.03 2.48   Temperature (deg F) Precipitation (inches)   Below- Normal Near- Normal Above- Normal Below- Median Near- Median Above- Median Grand Junction, CO 22.35 23.54 24.73 2.85 3.22 3.67 Grand Rapids, MI 22.79 24.06 25.33 5.00 5.47 6.05 Great Falls, MT 19.05 21.09 23.13 0.98 1.21 1.51 Gulkana, AK 0.26 1.18 2.10 1.22 1.83 2.14 Hartford, CT 27.56 28.76 29.96 7.30 8.01 9.10 Hatteras, NC 45.57 46.48 47.39 8.72 9.87 10.99 Hilo, HI 71.47 71.85 72.22 19.92 27.88 35.05 Homer, AK 25.30 25.95 26.60 5.68 6.71 7.73 Honolulu, HI 73.47 73.87 74.27 3.47 5.64 8.70 Houston, TX 52.54 53.39 54.24 10.70 12.30 14.72 Huron, SD 14.03 16.15 18.27 1.37 1.58 1.90 Iliamna, AK 18.47 19.32 20.17 3.05 3.97 4.47 Indianapolis, IN 27.50 28.85 30.20 5.86 6.93 8.14 International Falls, MN 8.61 10.58 12.55 1.90 2.06 2.21 Jackson, MS 46.57 47.46 48.35 14.80 16.28 17.65 Jacksonville, FL 51.98 52.80 53.62 8.85 11.68 13.06 Juneau, AK 28.53 29.11 29.69 11.49 13.78 16.41 Kahului, HI 72.09 72.51 72.93 4.64 6.62 8.69 Kansas City/Intl., MO 29.66 31.01 32.36 4.41 5.06 5.70 Kenai, AK 16.83 17.61 18.39 2.38 2.79 3.24 Ketchikan, AK 35.44 35.83 36.22 36.11 40.12 43.06 Knoxville, TN 36.71 37.60 38.49 10.82 12.61 14.01 Kodiak, AK 30.83 31.30 31.77 18.18 21.54 25.04   Temperature (deg F) Precipitation (inches)   Below- Normal Near- Normal Above- Normal Below- Median Near- Median Above- Median Kotzebue, AK -1.50 -0.74 0.03 1.54 1.73 1.95 Lander, WY 17.80 19.15 20.50 1.36 1.54 1.65 Las Vegas, NV 46.13 46.91 47.69 1.13 1.82 2.54 Lihue, HI 71.82 72.25 72.68 7.06 9.10 13.71 Little Rock, AR 44.56 45.43 46.30 12.73 15.24 16.56 Longview, TX 47.62 48.50 49.38 10.70 12.08 13.84 Los Angeles, CA 52.69 53.26 53.83 5.96 7.23 8.94 Madison, WI 21.90 23.44 24.98 3.97 4.63 5.47 Marfa, TX 46.81 47.55 48.29 0.90 1.41 1.80 Marquette, MI 16.81 18.25 19.69 4.46 4.92 5.37 McGrath, AK -2.98 -2.23 -1.48 2.17 2.85 3.71 Memphis, TN 40.42 41.38 42.35 12.51 13.94 15.15 Miami, FL 65.31 66.10 66.89 4.23 5.10 6.71 Minneapolis, MN 14.51 16.39 18.26 2.24 2.53 2.79 Missoula, MT 22.59 23.79 24.99 3.15 3.48 3.97 Mobile, AL 50.21 51.04 51.87 12.40 14.41 16.51 Mt.
