Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. ^[11]

Humidity measured at BERNAVILLE, 9.7 km away at 146 m, over 28 summers. ^[11]

That station sits 107 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.22 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[11]

An average of 883 mm of rain a year, spread over 136 days — about 6.5 mm on a day it rains. ^[11]
