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

30 years with a frost

Across 30 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Lingling falls on 9 February and the median first autumn frost on 22 December, which leaves a median of 311 days between them.

Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +1.9 days per decade at this station.

Frost dates and growing season at Lingling
Measure	Median, all years	Earliest period	Recent period (1952 to 2023)	Recent against earliest	Fitted trend
Last spring frost	9 February	n/a	9 February	n/a	-0.7 days per decade
First autumn frost	22 December	n/a	22 December	n/a	+1.2 days per decade
Growing days	311 days	n/a	311 days	n/a	+1.9 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

67 years, 1951 to 2024

A day with at least 79.0 mm (3.1 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 162.1 mm (6.4 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Lingling: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	79.0 mm (3.1 in)
5 years	101.3 mm (4.0 in)
10 years	116.0 mm (4.6 in)
25 years	134.6 mm (5.3 in)
50 years	148.4 mm (5.8 in)
100 years	162.1 mm (6.4 in)	Longer than the 67 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, 67 years of values from 1951 to 2024.

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: 194.8 mm (7.7 in) in 1976; 143.5 mm (5.6 in) in 1994; 122.8 mm (4.8 in) in 1970.

Climate Twins

2003 to 2024 against 1961 to 1990

Over 2003 to 2024, Lingling had a mean temperature of 19.3 C (66.7 F) and 1,345.2 mm (53.0 in) of rain a year. The 3 stations whose 1961 to 1990 climate was closest to that are Jian (China, 347 km away), Ganzhou (China, 340 km away) and Bastrop (United States, 13,001 km away).

Climate twins of Lingling: stations whose 1961 to 1990 climate is closest to its 2003 to 2024 climate
Twin station	Country	Distance away	Mean temperature, 1961-1990	Rain a year, 1961-1990	Climate difference
Jian	China	347 km (216 mi)	18.9 C (66.0 F)	1,473.3 mm (58.0 in)	0.83
Ganzhou	China	340 km (211 mi)	20.0 C (68.0 F)	1,423.4 mm (56.0 in)	1.07
Bastrop	United States	13,001 km (8,078 mi)	18.6 C (65.6 F)	1,366.6 mm (53.8 in)	1.20

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.
