San Juan National Forest Climate Normals: Twelve-Month Atmospheric Profile and Data

This climate profile presents a twelve-month record of meteorological averages for a single representative point within San Juan National Forest. Data reflects long-term climate patterns derived from NASA POWER measurements, including mean, minimum, and maximum temperatures alongside precipitation rates, relative humidity, wind speeds, and daylight duration. These figures characterize specific climatology trends rather than current weather, forecasts, or conditions across the entire forested landscape.
