When Rose Creek customers need you: the seasons

The nearest NOAA station with 1991-2020 climate normals, Austin Waste Wtp Facility, is 8 miles from Rose Creek. It records an average high of 81°F in July and an average low of 5°F in January. Precipitation totals about 36 inches a year, with June the wettest month. Freezing nights (32°F or below) come about 165 times a year.
