Packtricia calculated July Maribor-area ERA5 reanalysis averages via Open-Meteo for 1991–2020: mean daily high 26.5°C, mean daily low 16.3°C and mean monthly precipitation 104mm. Thirty complete year-months contribute equally using daily high/low means and precipitation sums. Requested coordinates 46.5547,15.6459 returned grid 46.5,15.75 at 262m model elevation. These regional lowland estimates are not Maribor station normals or forecasts. Display bands extend rounded means by 2°C each way and do not bound extremes. Rain totals are not wet-day probabilities; frost, storms, hill paths and higher Pohorje conditions need independent actual-date checks.
