2025 Year-In-Review: Part 2 - Precipitation

Are you ready for our 2025 Year-in-Review: Part 2 - Precipitation! We will take a look at Edmonton, and some other cities across Canada.

Edmonton averages 435mm of combined precipitation (rain + snow) each year.

For 2025 the airport ended up right on average with 429mm, while Blatchford and Stony Plain were down at 335mm.

February, April & September were very low. And July was low at Blatchford & Stony Plain, but average at the airport.

On the other hand, March & December were both well above average.



Big Storms

The summer storms missed Blatchford, which is a big part of why its 2025 total was so much lower than the airport's.

Blatchford's biggest day was 18.1mm on March 27th, while on July 19th Stony Plain got 29.4mm and the airport got 32.9mm.



Precipitation Across Canada

For cities across Canada the total precipitation ranged from Saskatoon at 262mm, up to St. John's with 1,294mm

The outlier cities for 2025 are: 

• Halifax averages 1,500mm, but only got 1,052mm 
• Moncton averages 1,200mm, but only got 830mm 

Everywhere else was pretty close to average.
