Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox settlement Harbor (Tolowa: chit ) is an unincorporated community in Curry County, Oregon, United States. It is located across the Chetco River from the city of Brookings. For statistical purposes, the United States Census Bureau has defined Harbor as a census-designated place (CDP). The census definition of the area may not precisely correspond to local understanding of the area with the same name. The population of the CDP was 2,391 at the 2010 census.

History

The original name of the post office in the area was "Chetco", after the Chetco River. It was established in 1863 and moved several times until it closed in 1910. Meanwhile, a new post office named Harbor was established at the mouth of the Chetco River in 1894. The name of the office may have originated from the Chetco Harbor Land and Townsite Company.

Geography

Harbor is located in southwestern Curry County along U.S. Route 101, Шаблон:Convert east of the center of Brookings and Шаблон:Convert north of the California state line. According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of Шаблон:Convert, of which Шаблон:Convert is land and Шаблон:Convert, or 16.88%, is water.

Climate

Harbor, like the Brookings area, has a cool-summer Mediterranean climate (Köppen climate classification Csb). According to the Trewartha climate classification, it has a subtropical climate (despite being a little farther north than Chicago in latitude) and is one of the northernmost North American locations to have one.

It has cool winters during which intense rainfall is broken by weeks of cool, sunny weather. Mild, dry summers with average rainfall in July and August of less than Шаблон:Convert per month are usual. There are an average of only two afternoons annually with high temperatures of Шаблон:Convert or higher and an average of 1.5 mornings with low temperatures of Шаблон:Convert or lower. The record high temperature was Шаблон:Convert on July 9, 2008. The record low temperature was Шаблон:Convert on December 8, 1972.

The wettest “rain year” in Harbor was from July 1937 to June 1938 with Шаблон:Convert and the driest from July 1976 to June 1977 with Шаблон:Convert, although as much as Шаблон:Convert fell during calendar year 1996.

Because of its location, Harbor is subject to winter (and less frequently summer) temperatures considered unusually warm for the Oregon Coast or for that matter, the North Coast of California. Temperatures can reach Шаблон:Convert throughout the year. This is due mostly to its situation at the foot of the Klamath Mountains, from which winds compress and warm the air flowing onto Harbor. This is called the Brookings effect or Chetco effect, similar to the warm dry Santa Ana winds of coastal Southern California. Daffodils and other bulbs generally bloom in February. In the lowlands, heavy fog is common in the summer while the coastal hills are generally sunny and cool.Шаблон:Citation needed
