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

82 years with a frost

Across 82 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Curtis falls on 11 May and the median first autumn frost on 26 September, which leaves a median of 137 days between them.

In 1971 to 2024 the median growing season was 140 days. That is 2 days more than in 1897 to 1948.

Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +0.6 days per decade at this station.

Frost dates and growing season at Curtis
Measure	Median, all years	Earliest period (1897 to 1948)	Recent period (1971 to 2024)	Recent against earliest	Fitted trend
Last spring frost	11 May	13 May	8 May	5 days earlier	-0.3 days per decade
First autumn frost	26 September	25 September	27 September	2 days later	+0.2 days per decade
Growing days	137 days	138 days	140 days	2 days more	+0.6 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

97 years, 1896 to 2025

A day with at least 50.6 mm (2.0 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 139.3 mm (5.5 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Curtis: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	50.6 mm (2.0 in)
5 years	69.4 mm (2.7 in)
10 years	83.6 mm (3.3 in)
25 years	103.9 mm (4.1 in)
50 years	120.8 mm (4.8 in)
100 years	139.3 mm (5.5 in)	Longer than the 97 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, 97 years of values from 1896 to 2025.

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: 129.5 mm (5.1 in) in 1947; 128.3 mm (5.1 in) in 1935; 114.8 mm (4.5 in) in 1963.
