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

62 years with a frost

Across 62 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Bastrop falls on 14 March and the median first autumn frost on 10 November, which leaves a median of 238 days between them.

In 1971 to 2013 the median growing season was 238 days. That is 3 days more than in 1894 to 1967.

Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +0.4 days per decade at this station.

Frost dates and growing season at Bastrop
Measure	Median, all years	Earliest period (1894 to 1967)	Recent period (1971 to 2013)	Recent against earliest	Fitted trend
Last spring frost	14 March	15 March	11 March	4 days earlier	-0.3 days per decade
First autumn frost	10 November	6 November	13 November	7 days later	0.0 days per decade
Growing days	238 days	235 days	238 days	3 days more	+0.4 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

82 years, 1894 to 2013

A day with at least 88.7 mm (3.5 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 203.9 mm (8.0 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Bastrop: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	88.7 mm (3.5 in)
5 years	115.2 mm (4.5 in)
10 years	134.3 mm (5.3 in)
25 years	160.6 mm (6.3 in)
50 years	181.6 mm (7.1 in)
100 years	203.9 mm (8.0 in)	Longer than the 82 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, 82 years of values from 1894 to 2013.

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: 220.2 mm (8.7 in) in 1991; 163.1 mm (6.4 in) in 1989; 160.8 mm (6.3 in) in 2008.

Station Changes

1 suspected

One change was suspected in the annual mean temperature of Bastrop, at 1976. Each is measured against neighbouring stations.

Relative to 5 neighbouring stations, the station's annual mean temperature from 1976 ran 0.5 C (0.8 F) higher than in the years before (likely change).

Year	Shift (C)	Shift (F)	Strength	Neighbours
1976	+0.5	+0.8	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.
