Regional context

In Liverpool, NOAA NCEI 1991-2020 normals put January near 24°F and July near 72°F — a 48°F seasonal arc — with about 39.9 inches of precipitation over 90 rainy or snowy days.

Liverpool's precipitation spreads evenly: October peaks at 3.9 inches on 8.4 wet days, while February holds 2.5 inches over 6.8 — no month dominates Liverpool's rain calendar. That even rhythm groups Liverpool with places like Galeville, NY, Lakeland, NY and Solvay, NY.

Liverpool reaches its last hard frost near late-May; that is the cue for kale, peas, spinach, and parsnips. Heat-demanding starts go out a fortnight on in Liverpool, after the soil warms and cold snaps clear. Frost returns to Liverpool near early-October, ending the tender-crop season. A creek-bottom lot in Liverpool can lag Liverpool's last frost 7-10 days behind a south slope.
