Weather in Salamanca, NY

We wanted to share some climate data about the Allegany region for folks contemplating camping or staying in cabins for the wedding. Using a 16-year dataset, we computed average highs and lows for the weekend of the wedding (September 25-27). During the past 16 years, Salamanca reached an average high of 68 degrees Fahrenheit and temperatures dropped to an average low of 39 degrees F; Not too shabby! A little on the cool side in the evening, but to be expected in the Allegany hills.

Keep in mind that Salamanca can experience daily high temperatures anywhere from 51-89 degrees F and daily low temperatures can range from 29-55 degrees F (brrr!). As for precipitation, it looks like a 50:50 chance, so one might want to bring an umbrella! Data provided by the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC).
