Rain and snow in Page
Page gets 46 inches of rain and melted snow a year. July is the wettest month and November the driest. Rain or snow falls on about 161 days a year. Snow covers the ground about 34 days of the year.
About 209 frost-free days a year

Heating and cooling a home in Page
Engineers use “degree days” to estimate how hard a furnace or air conditioner works. In Page, 80% of that work is heating and 20% 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.
