“Wet days” have at least 0.01" of rain or melted snow. “Snow on ground” counts days with 1" or more. The 30-year range is the coldest and warmest that month’s average temperature got between 1991 and 2020.
Rain and snow in Hooper
Hooper gets 14 inches of rain and melted snow a year. May is the wettest month and July the driest. Rain or snow falls on about 90 days a year. Snow covers the ground about 25 days of the year.
About 180 frost-free days a year
In half of years the last 32° night comes by April 22 and the first one by October 22. That leaves about 180 frost-free days for gardens, longer than 53% of U.S. towns.
Heating and cooling a home in Hooper
Engineers use “degree days” to estimate how hard a furnace or air conditioner works. In Hooper, 85% of that work is heating and 15% 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 Hooper itself (about a 3-mile square). Snow, frost dates and day counts come from NOAA’s weather station at Weber Basin Pump Plt 3, UT (20 mi, snow) and Ogden Hinkley Airport, UT (14 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.
