While the NOWData gives you a general idea of what the weather could be like on your wedding day, I want you to understand that weather is not an exact science. Most importantly, I hope it brings you one step closer to choosing an official date. Hopefully going through the climate data helps you understand the range of weather possibilities that can take place on a wedding day. If high temperatures have been over 100 degrees the last five years, you may want to consider that as a possibility on your wedding date. If there has been a decent amount of rainfall on this day over the last 10 years, then you can assume that may be the case for the following year on your wedding date. This is a good tool to look at trends over the last several years. You can now see every max and min temperature, observed rainfall, snowfall and snow depth (if applicable) for that specific day of the year in that city. Let’s say you want to check out information for one or two specific dates - go back to the main menu and under product click climatology for a day, select a date and year range, and voila. This will give you a general idea of the wettest and driest months along with the coolest and warmest months for that city. You will also want to pay attention to the mean max temperatures normal, which is the average high temperature over the entire month. You will want to pay close attention to the total precipitation normal, which shows the average rainfall for each month. These will give you a general overview of the weather at different times of the year and make it easy to digest with a graph and table of information. Under product, select daily/monthly normals, and under options, select either monthly or daily depending on what you are looking for. Under location, select the Palm Springs Area. For example, we’ll use the Palm Springs Area, which includes data from both the airport and fire station. Choose the nearest city or cities to your venue, and go from there. This is where you will go to look at the averages. The best part is that anyone can access it, and it is constantly updated.īookmark these links and visit them for climate data:įor areas covered by NWS Los Angeles/Oxnard (Ventura and Los Angeles Counties)įor areas covered by NWS San Diego (Orange, San Bernardino, Riverside and San Diego Counties) The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA) offers an online weather data system that we refer to as NOWData.
