This section discusses the wide-area hourly average wind vector speed and direction at 10 meters above the ground. The wind experienced at any given location is highly dependent on local topography and other factors, and instantaneous wind speed and direction vary more widely than hourly averages. The average hourly wind speed in Calgary experiences mild seasonal variation over the course of the year. The windier part of the year lasts for 7. The windiest month of the year in Calgary is December , with an average hourly wind speed of 8.
The calmer time of year lasts for 5. The calmest month of the year in Calgary is August , with an average hourly wind speed of 6. The predominant average hourly wind direction in Calgary is from the west throughout the year. To characterize how pleasant the weather is in Calgary throughout the year, we compute two travel scores.
Based on this score, the best time of year to visit Calgary for general outdoor tourist activities is from early July to mid August , with a peak score in the last week of July. Based on this score, the best time of year to visit Calgary for hot-weather activities is from mid July to mid August , with a peak score in the last week of July.
For each hour between AM and PM of each day in the analysis period to , independent scores are computed for perceived temperature, cloud cover, and total precipitation. Those scores are combined into a single hourly composite score, which is then aggregated into days, averaged over all the years in the analysis period, and smoothed. Our cloud cover score is 10 for fully clear skies, falling linearly to 9 for mostly clear skies, and to 1 for fully overcast skies. Our precipitation score , which is based on the three-hour precipitation centered on the hour in question, is 10 for no precipitation, falling linearly to 9 for trace precipitation, and to 0 for 0.
The growing season in Calgary typically lasts for 4. Growing degree days are a measure of yearly heat accumulation used to predict plant and animal development, and defined as the integral of warmth above a base temperature, discarding any excess above a maximum temperature.
Based on growing degree days alone, the first spring blooms in Calgary should appear around May 6 , only rarely appearing before April 22 or after May This section discusses the total daily incident shortwave solar energy reaching the surface of the ground over a wide area, taking full account of seasonal variations in the length of the day, the elevation of the Sun above the horizon, and absorption by clouds and other atmospheric constituents.
Shortwave radiation includes visible light and ultraviolet radiation. The average daily incident shortwave solar energy experiences extreme seasonal variation over the course of the year. The brighter period of the year lasts for 3. The brightest month of the year in Calgary is July , with an average of 6. The darker period of the year lasts for 3. The darkest month of the year in Calgary is December , with an average of 1.
For the purposes of this report, the geographical coordinates of Calgary are The topography within 2 miles of Calgary contains only modest variations in elevation, with a maximum elevation change of feet and an average elevation above sea level of 3, feet. Within 10 miles contains only modest variations in elevation feet. Within 50 miles contains very significant variations in elevation 7, feet. This report illustrates the typical weather in Calgary, based on a statistical analysis of historical hourly weather reports and model reconstructions from January 1, to December 31, There are 4 weather stations near enough to contribute to our estimation of the temperature and dew point in Calgary.
For each station, the records are corrected for the elevation difference between that station and Calgary according to the International Standard Atmosphere , and by the relative change present in the MERRA-2 satellite-era reanalysis between the two locations. The estimated value at Calgary is computed as the weighted average of the individual contributions from each station, with weights proportional to the inverse of the distance between Calgary and a given station.
The stations contributing to this reconstruction are: Calgary International, Alta. To get a sense of how much these sources agree with each other, you can view a comparison of Calgary and the stations that contribute to our estimates of its temperature history and climate.
