🌡 The weather here, in general

Reno runs the full range. The warmest stretch, around July, averages a high near 92°F, while January nights average 28°F — a 64-degree spread, so a coat that works in January is useless by July and the other way round.

Expect around 47 days a year at 90°F or above, concentrated in July. Heat illness climbs sharply on consecutive hot days, so the third day of a streak is more dangerous than the first.

Snow is a real feature of the year: roughly 39 inches falls in an average year, mostly across January, February, March and December. With 93 nights a year at or below freezing, ice on the roads is a longer season than snow on the ground.

Rainfall averages about 17 inches a year, wettest in January and driest in August.
