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

21 years with a frost

Across 21 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Viesca (Dge) falls on 27 February and the median first autumn frost on 28 November, which leaves a median of 275 days between them.

Frost dates and growing season at Viesca (Dge)
Measure	Median, all years	Earliest period	Recent period (1970 to 2007)	Recent against earliest	Fitted trend

First autumn frost	28 November	n/a	28 November	n/a	n/a
Growing days	275 days	n/a	275 days	n/a	n/a

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

30 years, 1970 to 2007

A day with at least 26.3 mm (1.0 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 73.7 mm (2.9 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Viesca (Dge): the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	26.3 mm (1.0 in)
5 years	39.9 mm (1.6 in)
10 years	48.5 mm (1.9 in)
25 years	58.9 mm (2.3 in)
50 years	66.4 mm (2.6 in)	Longer than the 30 years of record
100 years	73.7 mm (2.9 in)	Longer than the 30 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, 30 years of values from 1970 to 2007.

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: 65.8 mm (2.6 in) in 1988; 54.9 mm (2.2 in) in 1982; 49.8 mm (2.0 in) in 1984.
