No independently confirmed Star-specific climate-normal station was found this pass; Star sits within the same Treasure Valley high-desert climate zone as Boise and Meridian, so this record uses those closely-aligned figures as a disclosed, reasonable proxy: July average highs near 90°F, December average lows near 22°F.
Genuinely low humidity and abundant sunshine
Consistent with the broader Treasure Valley, Star sees genuinely low humidity and a real, substantial number of sunny days annually -- a materially different profile from a marine or humid-continental climate.
Modest annual precipitation and snowfall
Annual precipitation runs an estimated 11 inches, with modest winter snowfall around 14 inches -- genuinely less snow than the North Idaho markets built elsewhere in this same Idaho batch (Hayden, Sandpoint, Rathdrum).
