Regional context
Stoutsville's baseline climate, derived from NOAA NCEI 1991-2020 normals at the nearest reporting station, swings from a January mean of 27°F to a July mean of 76°F — a 49°F seasonal arc typical of the mid-latitude bands. Annual precipitation runs about 41.7 inches spread across roughly 140 days with measurable rain or snow each year.
Precipitation runs summer-dominant here: June averages 5.4 inches across 18.0 days with measurable rain, driven mostly by warm-season storms and thunderstorm activity, while January drops to just 1.8 inches across 6.0 rainy days under drier cool-season air. That summer-storm-driven distribution puts Stoutsville in a cohort with places like Goss, MO, Florida, MO and Hunnewell, MO, all of which depend on warm-season convective activity for the bulk of their annual moisture.
The frost-sensitive growing window opens around mid-April, when overnight lows reliably clear freezing for cool-season crops like kale, peas, spinach, and parsnips. Warm-soil crops — tomatoes, peppers, eggplant — wait until soil temperatures reach the mid-50s°F, usually two weeks past the last-frost date. The window closes around mid-November, when overnight lows resume dipping below freezing and frost-tender plants need protection or harvest. These are 30-year central tendencies; year-to-year frost dates can move by up to two weeks. Local features matter: a south-facing slope inside Stoutsville typically runs 3-5 days ahead of the regional last-frost date, while a low-lying lot along a creek or drainage can lag the same date by a week or more on calm clear nights.
