Forecast, conditions and alerts: National Weather Service. Climate: NOAA NCEI U.S. Climate Normals, 1991–2020 and 1901–2000. Temperatures and rainfall come from NOAA’s gridded normals for Wamac itself (about a 3-mile square). Snow, frost dates and day counts: the NOAA station at Centralia, IL (5 mi, snow) and Iuka 12 Sw, IL (10 mi, frost, heat and degree days). Sunrise and sunset are calculated from the town’s position. Normals are 30-year averages, not a forecast.
