===Climate=== Like most of the San Francisco Bay Area, Sunnyvale has a [[Mediterranean climate]] ([[Köppen climate classification|Köppen]] ''Csb''), with cool, moist winters and warm, very dry summers. Average daytime summer temperatures are in the high 70s, and during the winter, average daytime high temperatures rarely stay below {{convert|50|°F}}. Snowfall is rare, but on January 21, 1962, and February 5, 1976, measurable snowfall occurred in Sunnyvale and most of the [[San Francisco Bay Area]]. Sunnyvale was briefly hit by tornadoes in 1951 and 1998, but otherwise they are extremely rare.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://tornado.sfsu.edu/geosciences/StormChasing/Cases/Sunnyvale/Sunnyvale.html|title=Sunnyvale and Los Altos, CA Tornadoes|work=[[San Francisco State University]], Department of Geosciences|date=May 4, 1998|access-date=October 23, 2021|archive-date=June 13, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130613194202/http://tornado.sfsu.edu/geosciences/StormChasing/cases/Sunnyvale/Sunnyvale.html|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|first1=Justin|last1=Berton|first2=Steve|last2=Enders|url=http://www.svcn.com/archives/sunnyvalesun/05.06.98/CoverStory.html|title=Hit and Run: Freak tornado injures no one, but leaves behind costly damage|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090109100649/http://www.svcn.com/archives/sunnyvalesun/05.06.98/CoverStory.html|date=May 6, 1998|archive-date=January 9, 2009|access-date=October 24, 2021|work=[[Sunnyvale Sun|The Sun]]|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal|last1=Monteverdi|first1=John P.|first2=Warren|last2=Blier|first3=Greg|last3=Stumpf|first4=Wilfred|last4=Pi|first5=Karl|last5=Anderson|url=https://journals.ametsoc.org/view/journals/mwre/129/11/1520-0493_2001_129_2805_fwdoaa_2.0.co_2.xml|title=First WSR-88D Documentation of an Anticyclonic Supercell with Anticyclonic Tornadoes: The Sunnyvale–Los Altos, California, Tornadoes of 4 May 1998|journal=[[Monthly Weather Review]]|issue=11|volume=129|date=November 2001|page=2805|doi=10.1175/1520-0493(2001)129<2805:FWDOAA>2.0.CO;2|bibcode=2001MWRv..129.2805M|access-date=October 24, 2021|archive-date=October 24, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211024142514/https://journals.ametsoc.org/view/journals/mwre/129/11/1520-0493_2001_129_2805_fwdoaa_2.0.co_2.xml|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|last=Coile|first=Zachary|author2=Emily Gurnon|title=Storm knocks out power to thousands in Bay Area; Marin commuters cut off by U.S. 101 closure|work=THE STORMS OF '98|date=February 6, 1998|url=http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/examiner/archive/1998/02/06/NEWS397.dtl|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030331091830/http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/examiner/archive/1998/02/06/NEWS397.dtl|archive-date=March 31, 2003|access-date=December 15, 2008|url-status=dead}} </ref> {{Weather box|location = Sunnyvale, California |single line = Y |Jan record high F = 75 |Feb record high F = 84 |Mar record high F = 85 |Apr record high F = 94 |May record high F = 100 |Jun record high F = 107 |Jul record high F = 105 |Aug record high F = 101 |Sep record high F = 105 |Oct record high F = 100 |Nov record high F = 89 |Dec record high F = 75 |Jan high F = 59 |Feb high F = 62.2 |Mar high F = 65.6 |Apr high F = 70 |May high F = 74.3 |Jun high F = 78.8 |Jul high F = 80.7 |Aug high F = 80.8 |Sep high F = 80.1 |Oct high F = 74.3 |Nov high F = 64.7 |Dec high F = 58.6 |Jan low F = 41.1 |Feb low F = 43.5 |Mar low F = 45.4 |Apr low F = 47.1 |May low F = 50.7 |Jun low F = 54.1 |Jul low F = 56.5 |Aug low F = 56.4 |Sep low F = 55 |Oct low F = 50.8 |Nov low F = 44.8 |Dec low F = 41 |Jan record low F = 21 |Feb record low F = 24 |Mar record low F = 22 |Apr record low F = 31 |May record low F = 33 |Jun record low F = 40 |Jul record low F = 41 |Aug record low F = 44 |Sep record low F = 41 |Oct record low F = 34 |Nov record low F = 15 |Dec record low F = 20 |Jan precipitation inch = 3.30 |Feb precipitation inch = 3.56 |Mar precipitation inch = 2.57 |Apr precipitation inch = 1.15 |May precipitation inch = 0.52 |Jun precipitation inch = 0.12 |Jul precipitation inch = 0.02 |Aug precipitation inch = 0.04 |Sep precipitation inch = 0.21 |Oct precipitation inch = 0.90 |Nov precipitation inch = 2.03 |Dec precipitation inch = 3.10 |source 1 = Northwest Climate Toolbox<ref name="NWS">{{cite web|url=https://climatetoolbox.org/tool/Historical-Climate-Normals|title=Northwest Climate Toolbox|access-date=May 28, 2019|work=Climate Toolbox|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190529045219/https://climatetoolbox.org/tool/Historical-Climate-Normals|archive-date=May 29, 2019|url-status=dead}}</ref> |date=August 2010 }}
