We base the humidity comfort level on the dew point, as it determines whether perspiration will evaporate from the skin, thereby cooling the body. Lower dew points feel drier and higher dew points feel more humid. Unlike temperature, which typically varies significantly between night and day, dew point tends to change more slowly, so while the temperature may drop at night, a muggy day is typically followed by a muggy night.

The chance that a given day will be muggy in Asturianos is essentially constant during the winter, remaining around 0% throughout.

This section discusses the wide-area hourly average wind vector (speed and direction) at 10 meters above the ground. The wind experienced at any given location is highly dependent on local topography and other factors, and instantaneous wind speed and direction vary more widely than hourly averages.

The average hourly wind speed in Asturianos is essentially constant during the winter, remaining within 0.3 miles per hour of 8.2 miles per hour throughout.

For reference, on April 4, the windiest day of the year, the daily average wind speed is 9.0 miles per hour, while on August 25, the calmest day of the year, the daily average wind speed is 7.2 miles per hour.

The lowest daily average wind speed during the winter is 7.9 miles per hour on December 1.

Definitions of the growing season vary throughout the world, but for the purposes of this report, we define it as the longest continuous period of non-freezing temperatures (≥ 32°F) in the year (the calendar year in the Northern Hemisphere, or from July 1 until June 30 in the Southern Hemisphere).

The growing season in Asturianos typically lasts for 6.5 months (200 days), from around April 19 to around November 5, rarely starting before March 26 or after May 12, and rarely ending before October 17 or after November 26.

The winter in Asturianos is very likely fully outside of the growing season, with the chance that a given day is in the growing season reaching a low of -0% on December 25.

This report illustrates the typical weather in Asturianos, based on a statistical analysis of historical hourly weather reports and model reconstructions from January 1, 1980 to December 31, 2016.

Temperature and Dew Point

There are 4 weather stations near enough to contribute to our estimation of the temperature and dew point in Asturianos.

For each station, the records are corrected for the elevation difference between that station and Asturianos according to the International Standard Atmosphere , and by the relative change present in the MERRA-2 satellite-era reanalysis between the two locations.

The estimated value at Asturianos is computed as the weighted average of the individual contributions from each station, with weights proportional to the inverse of the distance between Asturianos and a given station.

The stations contributing to this reconstruction are:

To get a sense of how much these sources agree with each other, you can view a comparison of Asturianos and the stations that contribute to our estimates of its temperature history and climate. Please note that each source's contribution is adjusted for elevation and the relative change present in the MERRA-2 data.

Other Data

All data relating to the Sun's position (e.g., sunrise and sunset) are computed using astronomical formulas from the book, Astronomical Algorithms 2nd Edition , by Jean Meeus.

This reanalysis combines a variety of wide-area measurements in a state-of-the-art global meteorological model to reconstruct the hourly history of weather throughout the world on a 50-kilometer grid.

Land Use data comes from the Global Land Cover SHARE database , published by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.
