VALENTINE, NEBRASKA, USA
11/20/13
Valentine is a city in Cherry County, Nebraska, United States. The
population was 2,737 at the 2010 census. It is the county seat of
Cherry County. It is known as "America's Heart City". In 2007,
National Geographic Adventure magazine included Valentine in its list
of the best ten wilderness towns and cities.
Valentine participates in an annual re-mailing program where thousands
of pieces of mail flow into the local United States Post Office so
that they can be re-mailed with a special Valentine's Day postmark
and verse.
Valentine was nearly destroyed two years in a row: a large storm with
extremely high winds caused extensive damage to trees and buildings in
July 2005, and in July 2006 the "Big Rock Fire" engulfed over 3,000
acres of land.
Valentine has a humid continental climate. January is normally the
coldest month with average temperatures between 11 and 37 degrees
Fahrenheit. July is normally the warmest month with average
temperatures between 60 and 89 degrees F. Precipitation is low, with
June having the most rainfall at 3.56 inches, and an annual average of
around 20 inches. Snow reaches a peak in March with an average of 6.8
inches, and averages 34 inches per year.
I hope you enjoy this trip to Valentine, Nebraska.
