Measured at the CELLES-SUR-OURCE weather station, 5.8 km away at 275 m; the village itself is at 185 m. ^[12]

The village sits 90 m below the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.89 °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 2 days a summer. ^[12]

Humidity measured at CELLES-SUR-OURCE, 5.8 km away at 275 m, over 21 summers. ^[12]

That station sits 90 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.63 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[12]

An average of 873 mm of rain a year, spread over 132 days — about 6.6 mm on a day it rains. ^[12]

Rainfall measured at ESSOYES-CIVC, 4.2 km away at 280 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[12]
