Avon's weather has teeth on both ends: a scorching 100° on June 24, 2025 and a bone-cracking -25° on Valentine's Day 2016 define the extremes. The wettest single day on record — 12.77 inches on August 19, 1955 — hints at the area's vulnerability to late-summer deluges, while 26 inches of snow on February 9, 2013 remains the benchmark storm.
