The warm season lasts for 3. The cool season lasts for 3. The figure below shows you a compact characterization of the entire year of hourly average temperatures. The horizontal axis is the day of the year, the vertical axis is the hour of the day, and the color is the average temperature for that hour and day. The cloudier part of the year begins around October 10 and lasts for 7. A wet day is one with at least 0. The wetter season lasts 8. The drier season lasts 3.
Among wet days, we distinguish between those that experience rain alone , snow alone , or a mixture of the two.
To show variation within the months and not just the monthly totals, we show the rainfall accumulated over a sliding day period centered around each day of the year. In , the shortest day is December 21 , with 8 hours, 10 minutes of daylight; the longest day is June 21 , with 16 hours, 16 minutes of daylight. The earliest sunrise is at AM on June 17 , and the latest sunrise is 3 hours, 2 minutes later at AM on December The earliest sunset is at PM on December 11 , and the latest sunset is 5 hours, 9 minutes later at PM on June The figure below presents a compact representation of the sun's elevation the angle of the sun above the horizon and azimuth its compass bearing for every hour of every day in the reporting period.
The horizontal axis is the day of the year and the vertical axis is the hour of the day. For a given day and hour of that day, the background color indicates the azimuth of the sun at that moment. The black isolines are contours of constant solar elevation. The figure below presents a compact representation of key lunar data for The horizontal axis is the day, the vertical axis is the hour of the day, and the colored areas indicate when the moon is above the horizon.
The vertical gray bars new Moons and blue bars full Moons indicate key Moon phases. We base the humidity comfort level on the dew point, as it determines whether perspiration will evaporate from the skin, thereby cooling the body. Lower dew points feel drier and higher dew points feel more humid. Unlike temperature, which typically varies significantly between night and day, dew point tends to change more slowly, so while the temperature may drop at night, a muggy day is typically followed by a muggy night.
