About Andrews County Weather
A dry desert climate in West Texas
Andrews County maintains an annual average temperature of 64.9°F, which is roughly 10 degrees warmer than the national median. With only 14.0 inches of annual precipitation, this area is significantly drier than most of the United States.
Typical Texas heat with far less rain
The county's average temperature of 64.9°F aligns closely with the state average of 65.5°F. However, its 14.0 inches of rain is less than half of the statewide average of 31.9 inches, highlighting its semi-arid character.
Arid landscapes define the western border
Andrews County faces significantly drier conditions than the state average, receiving 17.9 fewer inches of rain annually. This water scarcity is typical for the Permian Basin region where sun and wind dominate the weather patterns.
Endless sun and triple-digit threats
Residents face a grueling 116 days of extreme heat annually, with summer averages reaching a high of 81.8°F. Winter is brief and cool, featuring a January average of 45.4°F and just 1.7 inches of snow.
Focus on water and sun protection
The 116 days of extreme heat require robust cooling systems and reliable vehicle maintenance for long desert drives. Xeriscaping is recommended for local yards to thrive in the 14-inch annual rainfall environment.
