Terms of Use

What VSWeather is

VSWeather compares the long term climate of cities using historical weather normals for the years 1991 through 2020. It describes typical conditions over decades. It is not a weather forecast and does not tell you what conditions will be on any particular day.

Use the data as general information

The figures on VSWeather are meant for general interest and high level planning, such as getting a feel for how two places compare. They are derived from climate models and published records and can differ from any single official station. Do not rely on them for decisions where precise accuracy or safety matters without checking an authoritative source such as NOAA or your national weather service. How the numbers are produced, and their known limitations, are described on our Data Sources page.

VSWeather and its data are provided as is and as available, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including any implied warranties of accuracy, fitness for a particular purpose, or that the site does not infringe the rights of others. We work to keep the data sound and document our methods, but we do not guarantee that every value is free of error.
