I. CLIMATE OF FLAGSTAFF, ARIZONA
NARRATIVE GEOGRAPHICAL AND CLIMATOLOGICAL SUMMARY
Flagstaff is majestically located on a plateau in the center of the largest stand of
Ponderosa Pine in the United States, at the base of the San Francisco Peaks (Arizona’s highest
mountains - 12,633 feet). The plateau, with an average elevation of around 7000 feet, is the
southern edge of the Colorado plateau and curves from the Grand Canyon southeastward across
mid-Arizona and then eastward into New Mexico. Flagstaff is the hub for north-south and eastwest travel across northern Arizona, and is the “gateway” to numerous recreational areas in
Arizona, including the Grand Canyon.
Flagstaff’s elevation of 7000 feet assures a variety of weather including cold winters and
mild pleasant summers, moderate humidity, and considerable diurnal temperature changes. Only
limited farming is carried on because of the shortness of the growing season, even though the
average precipitation for Flagstaff is 21.86 inches. The average date of the last occurrence of
320F in the spring is June 10 and that of the first 320F temperature in the fall is September 24.
However, the summers in Flagstaff are one of its best kept secrets with an average maximum
temperature in July of 81.20F, and an all-time record high of 970F. On average, only 3 days in
the summer have maximum temperatures of 900F or higher. Summer minimum temperatures are
cool and refreshing with temperatures often dipping into the 40s with an occasional night in the
30s.
The moderate summer heat gives way to a cooler but nonetheless pleasant fall period with
maximum temperatures generally in the 60s with minimum temperatures falling below freezing.
Winter weather typically begins by November and becomes well entrenched by December, with
frequent light to moderate snows and increasingly colder weather. By December, minimum
temperatures are generally in the teens, however afternoon maximum temperatures still average
in the 40s, due to the amount of sunshine the station receives. Because of its location with
respect to the typical jetstream and high altitude, Flagstaff is one of the ten most sunny locations
for National Weather Service offices in the United States, averaging 78 percent of the possible
sunshine throughout the year. Even with all of this winter sunshine, significant snowfall can be
expected during the winter with an average snowfall of around 102 inches per year. Between
storms, when dry high pressure builds in, winds become light and fresh snow cover is on the
ground, minimum temperatures can plummet. The all-time record low for Flagstaff is -300F.
By mid-April, winter weather usually begins to break, and although snow is not
uncommon in May, warm spells become more frequent. Snowfall has been reported as late as
June. Spring in Flagstaff is typically breezy and dry with little precipitation occurring in May
and early June.
There are two distinct periods of precipitation in Flagstaff. The first occurs during the
winter months from November through April when the jetstream can be located over the state
allowing Pacific storm systems to move overhead. The other distinct period is classified as the
summer rainy season, or “summer monsoon”. The monsoon rainy period usually occurs during
July and August when most of Arizona is subjected to widespread thunderstorm activity. These
thunderstorms are extremely variable in intensity and location and occur mainly between the
hours of 11 a.m. and 6 p.m.
Prevailing winds at Flagstaff are southwesterly most of the year. This is due to terrain
influences and short-wave weather disturbances moving across the Great Basin region of the
West. Winds of damaging force (greater than 60 mph) are rare but may occur around some of the
mountain locations during the winter and spring months. Additionally some thunderstorms may
produce local wind gusts over 60 mph for short durations.
Since there is no concentration of industry, smoke pollution is almost nonexistent, and the
air is remarkably free of contaminants of any kind, although smoke from residential fireplaces
can become a problem on some of the colder nights due to strong radiational inversions that
develop. During the winter and spring months, fog occasionally forms due to radiational cooling
from snow cover on the ground. However, this fog usually breaks up quickly by morning. In
spite of the elevation, periods of low ceilings and limited visibilities are usually of short duration.
A HISTORY OF WEATHER OBSERVATIONS AT FLAGSTAFF
The first official weather station in Flagstaff was established September 9, 1898. The
office was located at the southeast corner of Aspen Avenue and Park Street in a one-story fiveroom brick building known as the “Milligan Cottage”. The first observer was Miss Elizabeth
Renoe, who later married a young attorney who became the first United States Senator from
Arizona, Senator Henry Ashurst.
On March 15, 1912, the station was moved to Sitgreaves and Ellery Streets, which was
one-half mile southeast of the previous location. The station remained at this location until
October 29, 1919. The station was then moved to 602 North Leroux Street.
On June 1, 1943, the weather station was moved to the Federal Post Office Building in
downtown Flagstaff. A first-order weather station was then established.
On January 12, 1950, the weather station was moved to the Flagstaff Pulliam Airport,
four miles south of downtown Flagstaff. The station and the weather service office remained at
the airport until June 1994 when the National Weather Service office moved to the Camp Navajo
Army Depot in Bellemont. An automated weather station (ASOS) remains at the Flagstaff
Pulliam Airport recording the official observations for Flagstaff. The ASOS was commissioned
July 1, 1994.

SOME HIGHLIGHTS OF THE WEATHER RECORDS IN FLAGSTAFF
Many unusual weather events have taken place in Flagstaff since official weather
observations began on September 9, 1898. The following is a brief description of some of the
more extreme conditions recorded since then.
The all-time record high temperature for Flagstaff of 970F occurred on July 5, 1973.
Skies were clear and winds were generally light westerly, although by afternoon winds were
generally around 10 mph. The early morning temperature of 510F was very close to the normal
of 480F. The next day a weak cold front approached the state, keeping the afternoon high
temperature only at 890F.
The all-time record warmest minimum temperature for Flagstaff was broken on back to
back nights in 2002. On July 1, 2002 the mercury fell to only 67 degrees breaking the previous
record of 66 degrees set in 1949. This record was then broken again the next night when the
temperature only fell to 68 degrees. Oddly enough, the dew point temperatures were only in the
lower 40s during this period and there wasn’t any extensive cloud cover or winds to keep the
temperatures from falling rapidly. However, there was a large fire burning to the east of Flagstaff,
with some smoke in the area that may have contributed to the record warm overnight
temperatures.
The longest consecutive stretch of days with maximum temperatures of 900F or greater in
Flagstaff was 11 days. This occurred during June 21 - July 1, 1990. The highest temperature
reached during this longest stretch of warm weather was 940F.
The longest consecutive stretch of days with maximum temperatures of 850F or greater in
Flagstaff was 22 days. This occurred during June 10 - July 1, 1974.
The maximum number of days in a calendar year with temperatures of 900F or greater
was 15 set in 1974. Of note, 14 of those days occurred in June. The maximum number of days
in a year with temperatures of 850F or greater was 48 days which was also set in the warm
summer of 1974. 21 of these days occurred in June of that year.
The coldest temperature ever recorded in Flagstaff was -300F which was observed on
January 22, 1937. The maximum temperature reached that day was 120F, which was a 420F
diurnal spread.
The maximum number of consecutive days with minimum temperatures of 00F or lower
was eight. This stretch of cold weather occurred from December 27, 1966 - January 3, 1967.
The maximum number of days in a calendar year with temperatures of 00F or lower was
27 set in 1932. The maximum number of days in any month with temperatures of 00F or lower
was 17 set in the extremely cold month of January 1937. The average minimum temperature that
month was -2.90F which was about 18 degrees below normal.
Snow in Flagstaff is highly variable as well. The most snowfall ever recorded during the
winter season (October - May) was 210.0 inches in the winter of 1972-73. On the other extreme,
3
the least snowfall ever recorded at Flagstaff during the winter season was 11.2 inches which was
set in the winter of 1933-34.
The all-time record for heaviest precipitation during any calendar day at Flagstaff was
3.93 inches which was set on February 19, 1993. Interestingly enough, this precipitation all fell
in the form of rain, with temperatures remaining in the middle and upper 30s through the entire
24 hours. Another 1.18 inches of precipitation fell the next day, however temperatures fell
during the morning hours, changing the rain to snow, with a snow accumulation of 3.2 inches by
the end of the day.
February 1993 was the wettest month on record, with 10.05 inches of precipitation falling
during that period. Additionally, January 1993 was the wettest January on record with 9.55
inches of precipitation falling. Thus, almost 20 inches of precipitation (or almost the entire
normal precipitation for the year for Flagstaff) fell in a two month period of time. December
1992 was the second wettest December on record, giving a three month total from December
1992 through February 1993 of 27.38 inches which is by far the wettest three month period of
time in Flagstaff climatological history. Needless to say, this period was known for the
magnitude of flooding which occurred across the area.
The most snowfall to occur within a continuous stormy period, occurred from
December 13 - December 20, 1967, when 84.6" of snow fell. By the end of this event, 83 inches
of snow lay on the ground, essentially paralyzing the city of Flagstaff and most of northern
Arizona for over a week.
The greatest number of consecutive days without measurable precipitation was recorded
from September 24 - December 31, 1999, a total of 99 days! The greatest number of consecutive
days with measurable precipitation was 17 days set during the period of July 20 - August 5, 1968,
when a total of 3.29" of precipitation fell.
The most precipitation ever recorded in one calendar year at Flagstaff was 36.59 inches,
set during 1965. The least precipitation recorded in one calendar year at Flagstaff was 9.90
inches, set in 1942. Average annual precipitation for Flagstaff is 21.86 inches.

! Author Note: Due to the fact that weather stations were often moved, especially in the early
days of the National Weather Service, some records are more representative than others. Even
though all temperature and precipitation observations are valid for their particular locations,
some locations have proven to be more representative of the general surrounding area than
others. In the Flagstaff climatology, there are two periods of observations which appear to be not
as representative, due to their locations.
The first of these periods is from March 15, 1912- October 29, 1919 when the observations were
taken near the intersection of Sitgreaves and Ellery Streets. This location appears to have been a
cold location, with numerous record lows occurring here. When compared to other locations in
Arizona during this same period of time, this unusual cold tendency appears to be due to
instrument error, or to improper siting. You will note many daily, monthly, and yearly cold
records occurring during the 1912-1919 period.
The other period of suspect climate information is during the period from June 1, 1943 January 11, 1950 when the observations were being recorded at the old Flagstaff post office,
located downtown. Again, due to improper siting of the instruments on the post office roof, the
temperatures occurring at this location appear to be unnaturally too warm when compared to
surrounding stations. You will note many daily, monthly, and yearly warm records occurring
during the 1943-1950 period.
With time, these biased records will be overwritten by new records, however until that happens,
data from these two periods of record should be viewed with respect to their siting.

A degree day is a measure of the departure of the average daily temperature from 65 degrees.
Each degree that the daily temperature is below 65 degrees is equal to one heating degree day.
Each degree that the daily temperature is above 65 degrees is equal to one cooling degree day.
For example, if the average temperature on a particular day was 55 degrees, the heating degree
days would then be 65-55=10 heating degree days. If the average daily temperature was 72
degrees, the cooling degree days would then be 72-65=7 cooling degree days. Each day of the
month would be calculated in the same fashion, with negative differences counted as zero.
Heating and cooling degree days are useful in the computation of fuel and power consumption
and are used by utility companies to determine heating and cooling requirements.
