Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 22 days a year at or above 30 °C and 91 days at or below 0 °C, over 27 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the POULIGNEY weather station, 5.2 km away at 286 m; the village itself is at 348 m. [10]
The village sits 62 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.55 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [10]
An average of 1,221 mm of rain a year, spread over 146 days — about 8.4 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at POULIGNEY, 5.2 km away at 286 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
