Sheridan is a small town of about 18,000 people in Wyoming (WY), sitting at 44.8°N in a temperate climate zone. NWS, American, European each forecast Sheridan with their own physics, so we line all three up and flag where they disagree. Nearby towns include Worland, Gillette, Powell.

We grade every model against the weather that actually happened, so you can see which forecast model is most accurate in United States before you trust any single number.

Source: NASA POWER daily data from the MERRA-2 reanalysis, 1995-2024. Each value describes a grid square of about 50 km around Sheridan, not a weather station, and a square that takes in sea or a large lake runs milder than the city itself. That is why this section shows change against the square's own 30-year average rather than counts you could compare with a local station. Rain and snow are left out because their long-term record in this dataset is not consistent over time. "Within the normal year-to-year swing" means the change is smaller than the usual differences between single years.

The models often agree on temperature and still split on rain, and rain is usually what decides whether a plan survives. A wide rain range means the shower is genuinely uncertain, not that the forecast is wrong.
