Channel Islands National Park Twelve Month Climate and Weather Normal Profiles

Name: Channel Islands National Park monthly climate normals
Creator: NASA POWER

Review the long term climate normals for Channel Islands National Park, California, based on a representative coordinate at 9.7 meters of elevation. These measurements cover the 1991 to 2020 period, providing average monthly values for minimum and maximum temperatures, daily precipitation rates, relative humidity, wind speed, and total daylight hours. Use these data points to understand the typical monthly atmospheric rhythm rather than current weather conditions or short term forecasts.

Annual climate pattern

Tracking the transition between mild maritime temperatures and variable daily precipitation rates

Channel Islands National Park Annual Climate Normals and Monthly Temperature Patterns

Long-term data reveals a mild maritime cycle where average monthly mean temperatures stay between 14.4 °C and 20.3 °C. Average daily precipitation varies from less than 0.1 millimeters in summer to 3.79 millimeters in February, reflecting decades of climatology sampled at a representative low-elevation coordinate.

Twelve-month climate

Comparing twelve months of 1991 to 2020 average temperature bounds, daily precipitation, wind speed, and daylight calculations.

Channel Islands National Park Monthly Climate Normals and Weather by Month Comparison

Atmospheric tracking at a representative low-elevation coordinate reveals how average minimum, mean, and maximum temperatures fluctuate alongside average daily precipitation rates on the Channel Islands. Comparing the complete twelve-month cycle rather than a single annual average provides a clear view of shifting relative humidity, wind speed, and calculated daylight hours across the California archipelago.
