Alexandria climate: monthly averages

Everything below is collected in one spot so you do not have to cross-check Alexandria climate: monthly averages by hand. The gap between Jan and Aug is 14.3 C here: 13.9 C against 28.2 C. Precipitation peaks in Jan (0.75 mm/day) and bottoms out in Aug (0.00 mm/day), so a 2x difference between the two. Taken together that is roughly 105 mm of rain a year for the grid cell. Because each page is rebuilt independently, one unavailable upstream never takes the rest of the site down. The table underneath carries the per-month breakdown; the related pages cover the same dataset nearby.

What the Alexandria climate table shows

Values are multi-decadal climatological averages for the 31.2018, 29.9158 grid cell, not a single year. Rain is the daily mean, so a value of 2.00 mm/day is about 60 mm across a 30-day month. Averages smooth over extremes, so use them for planning rather than for what to pack for next Tuesday.

Frequently asked questions

Rain is recorded as a daily mean, so 0.75 mm/day is roughly 23 mm across a 30-day month.

Does Alexandria get the same every year?

Close to it. Averaging decades smooths variation, so treat these as typical rather than guaranteed.
