WEATHER NORMALS
What does it really mean when you here the term Normal. Actually a more approriate term is average temp. The National Weather
Service currently uses the standard of a 30 year average to determine the "Normal Temperatures and Rainfall". for any given date. This average is adjusted to form a mean curve over any given month, this way the day to day change does not have large variations. Currently N.O.A.A. is using the period of (1970 - 2000) to determine normals.
