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
80 years with a frostAcross 80 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at East Sale Airport falls on 4 September and the median first autumn frost on 4 June, which leaves a median of 275 days between them.
In 1996 to 2025 the median growing season was 274 days. That is 3 days fewer than in 1946 to 1975.
Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by -0.6 days per decade at this station.
| Measure | Median, all years | Earliest period (1946 to 1975) | Recent period (1996 to 2025) | Recent against earliest | Fitted trend |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Last spring frost | 4 September | 27 August | 4 September | 8 days later | +0.4 days per decade |
| First autumn frost | 4 June | 2 June | 3 June | 1 day later | -0.2 days per decade |
| Growing days | 275 days | 277 days | 274 days | 3 days fewer | -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
82 years, 1944 to 2025A day with at least 45.0 mm (1.8 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 130.5 mm (5.1 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.
| Expected about once in | A day with at least | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 2 years | 45.0 mm (1.8 in) | |
| 5 years | 64.8 mm (2.6 in) | |
| 10 years | 79.0 mm (3.1 in) | |
| 25 years | 98.5 mm (3.9 in) | |
| 50 years | 114.1 mm (4.5 in) | |
| 100 years | 130.5 mm (5.1 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 1944 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: 112.8 mm (4.4 in) in 1951; 108.8 mm (4.3 in) in 2004; 106.2 mm (4.2 in) in 1978.
Station Changes
1 suspectedOne change was suspected in the annual mean temperature of East Sale Airport, at 1997. Each is measured against neighbouring stations.
- Relative to 5 neighbouring stations, the station's annual mean temperature from 1997 ran 0.3 C (0.5 F) lower than in the years before (likely change).
| Year | Shift (C) | Shift (F) | Strength | Neighbours |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1997 | -0.3 | -0.5 | 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
2011 to 2025 against 1961 to 1990Over 2011 to 2025, East Sale Airport had a mean temperature of 14.6 C (58.2 F) and 569.6 mm (22.4 in) of rain a year. The 3 stations whose 1961 to 1990 climate was closest to that are Naracoorte (Australia, 578 km away), Laverton Raaf (Australia, 210 km away) and Melbourne Airport (Australia, 208 km away).
| Twin station | Country | Distance away | Mean temperature, 1961-1990 | Rain a year, 1961-1990 | Climate difference |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Naracoorte | Australia | 578 km (359 mi) | 14.5 C (58.1 F) | 569.5 mm (22.4 in) | 0.40 |
| Laverton Raaf | Australia | 210 km (130 mi) | 14.6 C (58.2 F) | 562.5 mm (22.1 in) | 0.40 |
| Melbourne Airport | Australia | 208 km (129 mi) | 14.5 C (58.0 F) | 564.1 mm (22.2 in) | 0.41 |
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.
