One of Oklahoma's Cooler Corners
The county's 57.3°F annual average is roughly 3.1 degrees lower than the Oklahoma state average of 60.4°F. It is also one of the driest counties in the state, falling nearly 11 inches short of the state's 37.2-inch precipitation average.

Moderate Heat but Chilly Winters
Extreme heat is still a factor with 77 days reaching 90°F, though this is fewer than many other Oklahoma counties. Winter brings a January average of 34.3°F, contributing to the county's relatively high snowfall for the region.
Equip for Dryness and Snow
Homeowners should prepare for 11.4 inches of snow with proper salt and removal tools during the winter months. Because the county only receives 26.3 inches of rain, xeriscaping and moisture-retaining soil amendments are recommended for any outdoor projects.
