Climate

An average of 42 days a year at or above 30 °C and 25 days at or below 0 °C, over 14 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[12]

Measured at the CATUS weather station, 5.3 km away at 307 m; the village itself is at 197 m. ^[12]

The village sits 110 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 9 days a summer. ^[12]

Humidity measured at ANGLARS, 14.4 km away at 104 m, over 15 summers. ^[12]

That station sits 93 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 854 mm of rain a year, spread over 104 days — about 8.2 mm on a day it rains. ^[12]

Rainfall measured at CATUS, 3.8 km away at 165 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[12]
