Climate

An average of 23 days a year at or above 30 °C and 48 days at or below 0 °C, over 23 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[12]

Measured at the BENEJACQ weather station, 12.4 km away at 255 m; the village itself is at 326 m. ^[12]

The village sits 71 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 4.94 °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 10 days a summer. ^[12]

Humidity measured at GER, 13.9 km away at 410 m, over 18 summers. ^[12]

That station sits 84 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 5.46 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[12]

An average of 1,243 mm of rain a year, spread over 133 days — about 9.3 mm on a day it rains. ^[12]

Rainfall measured at ANDOINS, 1.3 km away at 314 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[12]
