About 190 frost-free days a year

Heating and cooling a home in Panorama Park
Engineers use “degree days” to estimate how hard a furnace or air conditioner works. In Panorama Park, 86% of that work is heating and 14% is cooling, so the furnace matters far more than the air conditioner.
Degree days measure how far each day’s average temperature falls below or rises above 65°, added up over a year. Source: NOAA station normals.

Temperatures and rainfall come from NOAA’s gridded climate normals for Panorama Park itself (about a 3-mile square). Snow, frost dates and day counts come from NOAA’s weather station at Moline Quad City Intl Airport, IL (7 mi, snow) and Le Claire L&d 14, IA (3 mi, frost, heat and degree days). Normals are 30-year averages, not a forecast. Source: NOAA NCEI U.S. Climate Normals, 1991–2020 and 1901–2000.
