Twelve-month analysis of temperature, precipitation, humidity, and daylight metrics
Analyze the long-term climatology for Chikangawa Forest Reserve, Northern Region, using data spanning 1991 to 2020. Measurements derived from a single representative coordinate include monthly averages for air temperature, daily precipitation rates, relative humidity, wind speed, and daylight hours. Observe how atmospheric conditions shift throughout the calendar year based on standardized long-term normals.

Long term monthly temperature averages and precipitation timing across a representative coordinate
Trace average temperature bounds, daily precipitation rates, humidity, wind, and daylight across the entire year.

See two months side by side and how much they differ. Both use the same 1991–2020 climate normals and NASA POWER data point as the table above, so they show typical conditions, not a forecast.
Comparing twelve long-term monthly averages across temperature, precipitation, humidity, wind, and daylight duration.
