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

48 years with a frost

Across 48 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Bistrita falls on 22 April and the median first autumn frost on 6 October, which leaves a median of 167 days between them.

Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +2.2 days per decade at this station.

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.

Station Changes

2 suspected

2 changes were suspected in the annual mean temperature of Bistrita, at 1973 and 1994. Each is measured against neighbouring stations.
