North Shore climate: monthly averages

If you only need North Shore climate: monthly averages, the figures and table here are the whole story. North runs from 11.4 C in Jul to 20.4 C in Feb, a swing of 9.0 C. Rain is spread through the year, with May the wettest month at 3.81 mm/day and Nov the driest at 1.74 mm/day. Taken together that is roughly 1,012 mm of rain a year for the grid cell. The build runs on a schedule and caches the last good response, so the numbers stay put even when the upstream API is having a bad day. The table underneath carries the per-month breakdown; the related pages cover the same dataset nearby.

What the North Shore climate table shows

Values are multi-decadal climatological averages for the -36.8, 174.75 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

Why do the numbers differ from a weather app?

An app shows one location on one day. These are long-run averages, so they smooth out single hot or cold spells.

How much rain is 3.81 mm/day in a month?

Rain is recorded as a daily mean, so 3.81 mm/day is roughly 116 mm across a 30-day month.
