The climate of Rutland (Vermont
- United States of America)
Rutland is a small city located in the southern part of the state of
Vermont. The city is located in the vicinity of several parks and
preservation sites which attract many tourists. When marble was found
here the city flourished. With the coming of a railway the city
flourished even more. However, since the marble quarries closed at the
end of last century this region has struggled with high unemployment
figures. Just like the rest of Vermont Rutland has a wet continental
climate with cold winters and mild but wet summers. Precipitation is
quite evenly spread out over the year with a peak during the summer.
During the winter most precipitation falls in the form of snow.
However, the amount of snow that falls varies every year. Because of
high precipitation figures and favorable temperatures the surroundings
of Rutland are lusciously green.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
