First autumn frost	17 October	n/a	17 October	n/a	+4.6 days per decade
Growing days	170 days	n/a	170 days	n/a	+7.1 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.

The levels come from a generalised extreme value (GEV) distribution fitted by L-moments to the wettest-day total of each year, 33 years of values from 1987 to 2019.

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: 72.0 mm (2.8 in) in 2013; 58.0 mm (2.3 in) in 1994; 57.5 mm (2.3 in) in 2003.
