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

22 years with a frost

Across 22 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Encarnacion de Diaz falls on 10 February and the median first autumn frost on 29 November, which leaves a median of 292 days between them.

Frost dates and growing season at Encarnacion de Diaz
Measure	Median, all years	Earliest period	Recent period (1942 to 1997)	Recent against earliest	Fitted trend
Last spring frost	10 February	n/a	10 February	n/a	n/a
First autumn frost	29 November	n/a	29 November	n/a	n/a
Growing days	292 days	n/a	292 days	n/a	n/a

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

53 years, 1939 to 1997

A day with at least 46.6 mm (1.8 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 121.0 mm (4.8 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Encarnacion de Diaz: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	46.6 mm (1.8 in)
5 years	64.7 mm (2.5 in)
10 years	77.4 mm (3.0 in)
25 years	94.3 mm (3.7 in)
50 years	107.4 mm (4.2 in)
100 years	121.0 mm (4.8 in)	Longer than the 53 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, 53 years of values from 1939 to 1997.

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: 131.1 mm (5.2 in) in 1989; 104.6 mm (4.1 in) in 1985; 83.1 mm (3.3 in) in 1975.

Station Changes

1 suspected

One change was suspected in the annual mean temperature of Encarnacion de Diaz, at 1986. Each is measured against neighbouring stations.

Year	Shift (C)	Shift (F)	Strength	Neighbours
1986	-0.7	-1.3	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.
