Regional context

Jamestown swings from 38°F in January to 79°F in July (41°F) per NOAA NCEI 1991-2020 normals; precipitation in Jamestown runs about 46.6 inches on roughly 184 measurable days.

Rainfall in Jamestown stays even across the calendar: August tops out at 5.2 inches over 22.1 rainy days, and October still logs 2.5 inches across 10.2 — a narrow range for Jamestown. It is a balanced pattern Jamestown shares with places like High Point, NC, Archdale, NC and Greensboro, NC.

Around mid-March, Jamestown sheds its freezing nights — peas, lettuce, spinach, and radishes go into Jamestown's beds. Jamestown's heat-lovers — tomatoes, peppers, squash — hold off until Jamestown's frost risk clears, 10-14 days on. By mid-December, frost is back in Jamestown — protect or harvest anything tender. A creek-bottom lot in Jamestown can lag Jamestown's last frost 7-10 days behind a south slope.
