Monthly climate normal parameters - Luxembourg/Findel Airport (WMO ID 06590)

Description

Background:
Climate normals are arithmetic averages of measured or observed meteorological elements. The general recommendation of the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) is to use 30-year periods of reference. The current climatological standard normal period is 1991–2020. These long-term averages are used to describe the climate of an area. They are also used to compare the actual weather conditions occurring in a region with the average expected climate. This international coordination and standardisation enables comparisons of climate and climatological reports across national boundaries.
