The nearest NOAA station with 1991-2020 climate normals, Willmar Wwtp, is 13 miles from Atwater. It records an average high of 82°F in July and an average low of 3°F in January. About 29 inches of rain and melted snow fall in a normal year, most of it in June. Freezing nights (32°F or below) come about 166 times a year.
