Annual cycles in temperature, precipitation, and humidity at a representative marine location
Oceanic Shoals Marine Park long-term climate normals derived from NASA POWER measurements between 1991 and 2020 provide a detailed annual profile. This data encompasses monthly average temperatures, daily precipitation rates, relative humidity, wind speed, and daylight hours at a single representative coordinate. These records define the baseline climatology for the area rather than current daily weather or forecasts. Consistent measurement patterns facilitate comparative analysis of atmospheric conditions across the entire calendar 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.
