The area is the highest on the mainland, and the climate is temperate enough to have distinct temperature variations year round.

The weather is temperate year-round, due to its location in the Isothermal Belt, a phenomenon that results when warmer air on the western side of the Appalachian Mountains blows over the mountains, leaving a trough where significant temperature inversions of 20 degrees Fahrenheit or greater can occur.

Brownfield lies in a semi-arid temperate zone, where high winds and extreme temperature variation are the norm.

Many plants grown in temperate climates require vernalization and must experience a period of low winter temperature to initiate or accelerate the flowering process.
