===Climate=== Somerset has a humid continental climate that is affected by the high elevation, rendering it colder much of the winter than Altoona, Johnstown, or State College, despite being well south of these locations. Its climate is quite similar to those seen in northern Pennsylvania, although the average winter high temperatures are slightly higher. Somerset holds the June and November record low records for the state of Pennsylvania. Somerset is also the only place in Pennsylvania to receive accumulations of snow in June (other places received a partial dusting at most) when it received three inches of snow from the same polar front that caused it to drop to 20 degrees on June 10, 1913. Because of arctic air, powdery snow fell. It was photographed being swept off porches with brooms. That same cold snap brought snow to many other Pennsylvania communities, especially in the northern counties. {{Weather box |location = Somerset, Pennsylvania |single line = Y |Jan record high F = 75 |Feb record high F = 76 |Mar record high F = 85 |Apr record high F = 90 |May record high F = 93 |Jun record high F = 99 |Jul record high F = 100 |Aug record high F = 103 |Sep record high F = 98 |Oct record high F = 92 |Nov record high F = 80 |Dec record high F = 77 |year record high F= 103 |Jan high F = 31 |Feb high F = 34 |Mar high F = 43 |Apr high F = 54 |May high F = 63 |Jun high F = 70 |Jul high F = 74 |Aug high F = 73 |Sep high F = 67 |Oct high F = 57 |Nov high F = 46 |Dec high F = 34 |year high F= |Jan low F = 14 |Feb low F = 15 |Mar low F = 22 |Apr low F = 32 |May low F = 41 |Jun low F = 51 |Jul low F = 56 |Aug low F = 54 |Sep low F = 47 |Oct low F = 37 |Nov low F = 29 |Dec low F = 20 |year low F= |Jan record low F = β33 |Feb record low F = β29 |Mar record low F = β20 |Apr record low F = β3 |May record low F = 16 |Jun record low F = 20 |Jul record low F = 33 |Aug record low F = 29 |Sep record low F = 22 |Oct record low F = 9 |Nov record low F = β15 |Dec record low F = β25 |year record low F= β33 |precipitation color = green |Jan precipitation inch = 3.23 |Feb precipitation inch = 2.87 |Mar precipitation inch = 3.92 |Apr precipitation inch = 3.98 |May precipitation inch = 4.18 |Jun precipitation inch = 4.14 |Jul precipitation inch = 3.93 |Aug precipitation inch = 3.78 |Sep precipitation inch = 3.42 |Oct precipitation inch = 2.71 |Nov precipitation inch = 3.15 |Dec precipitation inch = 3.07 |year precipitation inch= 43.07 |Jan snow inch = 26.8 |Feb snow inch = 21.2 |Mar snow inch = 14.2 |Apr snow inch = 3.5 |May snow inch = 0.5 |Jun snow inch = 0 |Jul snow inch = 0 |Aug snow inch = 0 |Sep snow inch = 0 |Oct snow inch = 1.1 |Nov snow inch = 5.5 |Dec snow inch = 20.1 |year snow inch= 92.9 |source 1 = PA State Climatologist<ref>{{cite web |url=http://climate.met.psu.edu/cgi-bin/city_v2.cgi |title=Monthly Averages for Somerset, PA |publisher=psu.edu |year=2009 |access-date=July 5, 2009}}</ref> |date=August 2010 }} [[File:Easter Sunset From The Diamond.jpg|thumb|Easter Sunset From The Diamond]]
