Outdoor Conditions answers everyday outdoor questions for specific places: how warm the water is at a beach or lake, how strong the sun will be today, and when the last and first frosts usually come.
Our approach
- Public data only. Our numbers come from NOAA, USGS, EPA, the U.S. Census Bureau and the USDA/Oregon State University hardiness zone data.
- Named sources and timestamps. Every value says where it came from, how far away it was measured and when.
- Plain explanations. We explain what the numbers mean and where they can mislead, in our guides and methodology pages.
