Longest dry spell (CDD)

The longest dry spell of the year at Jork, 1951 to 1990. The record is 54 days in 1959, marked on the chart; the median year is 20 days.

Each chart shows one value per year; the dot marks the record year. TXx is the hottest daily maximum, TNn the coldest daily minimum, Rx1day and Rx5day the largest one-day and five-day rain totals, and CDD the longest run of days with less than 1 mm of rain. A year with missing days can understate an extreme.

Frost Dates and Growing Season

39 years with a frost

Across 39 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Jork falls on 28 April and the median first autumn frost on 15 October, which leaves a median of 174 days between them.

Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by -1.4 days per decade at this station.

Frost dates and growing season at Jork
Measure	Median, all years	Earliest period	Recent period (1960 to 1989)	Recent against earliest	Fitted trend
Last spring frost	28 April	n/a	28 April	n/a	+0.1 days per decade
First autumn frost	15 October	n/a	17 October	n/a	-1.3 days per decade
Growing days	174 days	n/a	173 days	n/a	-1.4 days per decade

A frost day is a day with a daily minimum at or below 0 C (32 F). The last spring frost and the first autumn frost are the last and first such days of the cold season, and growing days are the days between them. A negative trend for the last spring frost means it comes earlier.

Rainfall Return Levels

39 years, 1951 to 1989

A day with at least 30.8 mm (1.2 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 79.5 mm (3.1 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Jork: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	30.8 mm (1.2 in)
5 years	40.6 mm (1.6 in)
10 years	48.2 mm (1.9 in)
25 years	59.3 mm (2.3 in)
50 years	68.8 mm (2.7 in)	Longer than the 39 years of record
100 years	79.5 mm (3.1 in)	Longer than the 39 years of record

The levels come from a generalised extreme value (GEV) distribution fitted by L-moments to the wettest-day total of each year, 39 years of values from 1951 to 1989.

A return level is an estimate. It is least reliable for the long periods, 50 and 100 years, and for any period longer than the record behind the fit, where the fit has to reach past the largest day actually observed. It is not a forecast.

The largest wettest-day totals in the fit: 87.8 mm (3.5 in) in 1989; 57.7 mm (2.3 in) in 1952; 51.4 mm (2.0 in) in 1963.
