The Climate of Greer County Greer County is at the western edge of the Central Great Plains, encompassing some of the best agricultural land in Oklahoma. Average annual precipitation ranges from about 25 to 38 inches across the county. Most of the precipitation comes in the springtime, with nearly one-third of the annual total falling in May and June. Autumn can also bring heavy rains, but not as consistently as the springtime. More than half of the winters have at least one inch of snow, with ten inches or more occurring about once every six years. Temperatures average from 59 degrees in northern parts of the county to 62 degrees along its southern border. Temperatures range from an average daytime high of 98 degrees in July to an average low of 25 degrees in January. Greer County averages a growing season of 211 days, but plants that can withstand short periods of colder temperatures may have an additional five weeks. Winds from the south to southeast are quite dominant, averaging more than nine miles-per-hour. Relative humidity, on average, ranges from 38% to 88% during the day. During the year, humidity is lowest in the summer and highest in late fall. Winter months tend to be cloudier than summer months. The percentage of possible sunshine ranges from an average of about 60% in winter to more than 80% in summer. Thunderstorms occur on about 42 days each year, predominantly in the spring and summer. During the period 1950-2003, Greer County recorded 32 tornadoes, although neighboring counties had substantially more. Greer County has not reported a significant tornado (F2 intensity or greater) since May 12, 1983. However, there have been more active patterns in the past. On April 27, 1912, three significant tornadoes struck Greer County on the same day, and two others occurred on May 7 just one decade later. Typically, there are about three events each year of hail exceeding one inch in diameter. As information collection improves, both the number of reported tornadoes and the number of severe hail events have increased.

About the Data: The temperature and precipitation data from Mangum are from the National Weather Service Cooperative Observer station, which records daily maximum and minimum temperatures, precipitation, and snowfall. The station has been in operation since 1920, yielding a 84-year series of data. Extremes, frost and freeze data, and growing season lengths were determined using the entire 84-year series. The means for temperature, precipitation, and snowfall were determined using a subset of the series, from 1971-2000, corresponding with official national standards set by the National Climatic Data Center. Wind and humidity data are compiled from the Oklahoma Mesonet station at Mangum (5 miles southeast of town), which has been operational since 1994. The Oklahoma Mesonet is a cooperative project between Oklahoma State University and The University of Oklahoma. Data are collected and archived at the Oklahoma Climatological Survey. The Mesonet records a variety of weather information at 5-minute intervals throughout the day, with at least one reporting station in every county in Oklahoma. For more information on the Mesonet, see http://www.mesonet.org/. Solar radiation (sunshine) data were obtained from the Climatic Atlas of the United States, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1968. Severe storm information is available from the National Climatic Data Center, http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/, under Weather/Climate Events: Climatology & Extreme Events, U.S. Storm Events Database. The best site for online county tornado information for Oklahoma is through the National Weather Service, Norman Office, http://www.srh.noaa.gov/oun/tornadodata/. The tables and summary were prepared by the Oklahoma Climatological Survey. For more information, please contact OCS at 405-325-2541.
