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

121 years, 1874 to 2022

Rainfall return levels at Durdidwarrah: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	47.5 mm (1.9 in)
5 years	68.4 mm (2.7 in)
10 years	83.2 mm (3.3 in)
25 years	103.1 mm (4.1 in)
50 years	118.8 mm (4.7 in)
100 years	135.2 mm (5.3 in)

The levels come from a generalised extreme value (GEV) distribution fitted by L-moments to the wettest-day total of each year, 121 years of values from 1874 to 2022.

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: 128.4 mm (5.1 in) in 2005; 118.4 mm (4.7 in) in 1973; 110.7 mm (4.4 in) in 1951.
