Where Saint-Pie’s numbers come from

Averages over 30 years, not a forecast.

  • Normals: Environment and Climate Change Canada’s 1991–2020 normals, Granby: the nearest of its locations with every month’s temperatures.
  • Comparisons: a pool of Canadian towns and neighbourhoods of 2,500 or more, read alike; whole cities and reserves stay out of it.
  • Not on this page: sunshine, absent from every 1991–2020 location, and an altitude correction, for want of the town’s own elevation.
