Data: U.S. Spring Temperature Trends

Resources | Climate Central

Average temperatures and days above normal were calculated for each spring (March, April, May) from 1970 to 2024 using data obtained from the Applied Climate Information System.
Spring days above normal are defined as the number of days where the average temperature was above the 1991-2020 NOAA/NCEI climate normal.  
Climate Central's local analyses include 247 stations. 
  • For reported data summaries based on linear regression, however, only 241 stations are included due to data completeness measures that were not met by six stations: Bend, Ore.; Hazard, Ky.; Jefferson City, Mo.; Jonesboro, Ark.; Twin Falls, Idaho; and Wheeling, W.Va.

This Climate Matters analysis was made possible by open access data from NOAA/NCEI.
