Climate

Measured at the SOULAN weather station, 4.8 km away at 638 m; the village itself is at 512 m. ^[12]

The village sits 126 m below the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.7 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. ^[12]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 3 days a summer. ^[12]

Humidity measured at ST GIRONS, 11.3 km away at 414 m, over 30 summers. ^[12]

That station sits 98 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.26 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[12]

An average of 1,279 mm of rain a year, spread over 133 days — about 9.6 mm on a day it rains. ^[12]

Rainfall measured at SOULAN, 4.8 km away at 638 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[12]
