Where Glenview West’s numbers come from

Averages over 30 years, not a forecast.

  • Normals: the 1991–2020 Canadian Climate Normals at Burlington Piers, the closest ECCC location with twelve months of temperature normals.
  • Other locations: precipitation and snowfall come from the nearest location that publishes all twelve months of them, as named above.
  • Comparisons: all Canadian places of 2,500 or more except city totals and reserves, each read the same way.
  • Not on this page: sunshine, absent from every 1991–2020 location, and an altitude correction, for want of the town’s own elevation.
