Temperatures and rainfall come from NOAA’s gridded climate normals for Logan itself (about a 3-mile square). Snow, frost dates and day counts come from NOAA’s weather station at Burdett 3s, KS (10 mi, snow) and Kinsley 2e, KS (8 mi, frost, heat and degree days). Normals are 30-year averages, not a forecast.
