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

24 years with a frost

Across 24 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Naracoorte falls on 16 August and the median first autumn frost on 11 June, which leaves a median of 302 days between them.

Frost dates and growing season at Naracoorte
Measure	Median, all years	Earliest period	Recent period (1963 to 1998)	Recent against earliest	Fitted trend
Last spring frost	16 August	n/a	16 August	n/a	n/a
First autumn frost	11 June	n/a	11 June	n/a	n/a
Growing days	302 days	n/a	302 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

116 years, 1884 to 2000

A day with at least 33.7 mm (1.3 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 85.0 mm (3.3 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Naracoorte: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	33.7 mm (1.3 in)
5 years	44.8 mm (1.8 in)
10 years	53.1 mm (2.1 in)
25 years	64.9 mm (2.6 in)
50 years	74.5 mm (2.9 in)
100 years	85.0 mm (3.3 in)

The levels come from a generalised extreme value (GEV) distribution fitted by L-moments to the wettest-day total of each year, 116 years of values from 1884 to 2000.

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: 85.6 mm (3.4 in) in 1913; 83.1 mm (3.3 in) in 1969; 71.9 mm (2.8 in) in 1889.
