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 at Saratow
Measure	Median, all years	Earliest period (1936 to 1968)	Recent period (1989 to 2018)	Recent against earliest	Fitted trend
Last spring frost	18 April	20 April	15 April	5 days earlier	-1.2 days per decade
First autumn frost	11 October	8 October	15 October	7 days later	+1.4 days per decade
Growing days	176 days	170 days	185 days	15 days more	+2.6 days per decade

50 years	64.4 mm (2.5 in)
100 years	71.6 mm (2.8 in)	Longer than the 83 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, 83 years of values from 1936 to 2018.

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: 81.0 mm (3.2 in) in 1985; 64.7 mm (2.5 in) in 1950; 60.7 mm (2.4 in) in 1993.

Station Changes

2 suspected

2 changes were suspected in the annual mean temperature of Saratow, at 1967 and 2010. Each is measured against neighbouring stations.

Relative to 5 neighbouring stations, the station's annual mean temperature from 1967 ran 0.3 C (0.6 F) higher than in the years before (likely change).
Relative to 5 neighbouring stations, the station's annual mean temperature from 2010 ran 0.4 C (0.6 F) lower than in the years before (likely change).

Suspected changes in the annual mean temperature at Saratow, against neighbouring stations
Year	Shift (C)	Shift (F)	Strength	Neighbours
1967	+0.3	+0.6	likely	5
2010	-0.4	-0.6	likely	5

Possible change at the station (a move, a new instrument or a new site); the record is kept as measured. A "likely" change has a larger test statistic than a "possible" one. Neither says why the station differs from its neighbours. How changes are found, and the largest ones.

Climate Twins

2004 to 2018 against 1961 to 1990

Over 2004 to 2018, Saratow had a mean temperature of 7.9 C (46.3 F) and 475.8 mm (18.7 in) of rain a year. The 3 stations whose 1961 to 1990 climate was closest to that are Volshskiy Gmo (Russia, 341 km away), Frolovo (Russia, 256 km away) and El-Ton (Russia, 281 km away).

Climate twins of Saratow: stations whose 1961 to 1990 climate is closest to its 2004 to 2018 climate
Twin station	Country	Distance away	Mean temperature, 1961-1990	Rain a year, 1961-1990	Climate difference
Volshskiy Gmo	Russia	341 km (212 mi)	8.3 C (47.0 F)	402.4 mm (15.8 in)	0.63
Frolovo	Russia	256 km (159 mi)	7.4 C (45.2 F)	442.8 mm (17.4 in)	0.82
El-Ton	Russia	281 km (175 mi)	8.2 C (46.7 F)	275.5 mm (10.8 in)	1.12

Twins are stations, not cities. A twin is one of the three stations at least 100 km away whose earlier climate is closest to this station's recent one, so a close match does not mean the two places look alike in other ways. A station move or a gap in a record can change that station's averages. The list describes past climate; it is not a forecast and does not say what caused any change. How twins are found, and a search for any station.
