SANTA ROSA, CA Previous Page Next Page
   Weather
Sonoma County has many many micro climates, not only with temperature, but also with precipitation. For example Santa Rosa averages a little over 30 inches of rain a year, but if you travel 10 to 20 miles away, rainfall averages are much higher. Cazadero is in western Sonoma County during one year received 117 inches of rain! Sometimes for several years in a row this town receives well over 50 inches of rain each year.

Santa Rosa tends to have quite a bit of fog in the summer months but each summer can vary in the amount of fog. Summer hot spells in Santa Rosa rarely last for more then a few days. The temperature reaches 100 or over in Santa Rosa maybe 5-7 days out of the year if you are lucky. However, the Upper Napa Valley, Healdsburg, or Cloverdale tend to be much warmer then Santa Rosa in the summer months. However, Santa Rosa is usually a bit warmer then these places in the winter.

Winter highs average in the high 40's and low to mid 50's. Weeks can go by without temperatures much above 60 degrees F. Summers are very dry and mild. Temperatures usually remain in the 70's and 80's.

Typically between the months of November and March Santa Rosa receives a fair amount of frost and nights where the temperature hovers at 32 F or several degrees below. Santa Rosa definitely does not have as mild weather as say more central and southern California. Because of the generally colder nights in the winter its difficult to grow semi tropical fruit such as avocadoes or bananas - although if you look carefully you can actually see a few small trees around town.
