Twelve-month statistical analysis of temperature, precipitation, wind, and light cycles
Climate records for Samuel R. McKelvie National Forest reveal the long-term atmospheric patterns measured at a representative coordinate. This profile documents average temperature, daily precipitation rates, relative humidity, wind speed, and daylight hours from 1991 through 2020. Data points characterize the annual rhythmic variance across Cherry County, providing a foundational geographic understanding of the area's climate based on NASA POWER observations.
