Galeras Monthly Climate Normals: Long-term Temperature and Precipitation Patterns

Understand the annual climate rhythm of Galeras through standardized monthly averages. The data captures temperature, precipitation, humidity, wind, and daylight cycles derived from long-term observations at a single representative elevation. These figures provide a stable look at regional climatology rather than daily weather or seasonal forecasts.
