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

71 years with a frost

Across 71 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Schotten falls on 22 April and the median first autumn frost on 30 October, which leaves a median of 188 days between them.

In 1990 to 2021 the median growing season was 186 days. That is 5 days fewer than in 1949 to 1978.

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

Frost dates and growing season at Schotten
Measure	Median, all years	Earliest period (1949 to 1978)	Recent period (1990 to 2021)	Recent against earliest	Fitted trend
Last spring frost	22 April	21 April	22 April	1 day later	+0.5 days per decade
First autumn frost	30 October	30 October	28 October	2 days earlier	-0.1 days per decade
Growing days	188 days	191 days	186 days	5 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

72 years, 1949 to 2021

A day with at least 38.5 mm (1.5 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 87.8 mm (3.5 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Schotten: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	38.5 mm (1.5 in)
5 years	50.2 mm (2.0 in)
10 years	58.5 mm (2.3 in)
25 years	69.7 mm (2.7 in)
50 years	78.5 mm (3.1 in)
100 years	87.8 mm (3.5 in)	Longer than the 72 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, 72 years of values from 1949 to 2021.

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: 90.7 mm (3.6 in) in 2019; 81.2 mm (3.2 in) in 1982; 72.6 mm (2.9 in) in 1981.

Station Changes

No change in the annual mean temperature of this station was found against its neighbours.

Climate Twins

2007 to 2021 against 1961 to 1990

Over 2007 to 2021, Schotten had a mean temperature of 9.6 C (49.2 F) and 831.3 mm (32.7 in) of rain a year. The 3 stations whose 1961 to 1990 climate was closest to that are Bad Ems (Germany, 103 km away), Eppingen (Germany, 152 km away) and Ohringen (Germany, 146 km away).

Climate twins of Schotten: stations whose 1961 to 1990 climate is closest to its 2007 to 2021 climate
Twin station	Country	Distance away	Mean temperature, 1961-1990	Rain a year, 1961-1990	Climate difference
Bad Ems	Germany	103 km (64 mi)	9.8 C (49.7 F)	797.8 mm (31.4 in)	0.48
Eppingen	Germany	152 km (94 mi)	9.5 C (49.1 F)	775.8 mm (30.5 in)	0.54
Ohringen	Germany	146 km (91 mi)	9.4 C (48.9 F)	841.3 mm (33.1 in)	0.55

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.
