Officially, it's 10a but being so close to the lake makes it 10b. In fact the weather station says that the mean low for the past 20 years is 39. The absolute low is 25 over the 60 year record. The mean high for the past 20 years is 96 and the absolute high is 100 over the 60 year record. Average 55 inches of rain per year.
