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

62 years with a frost

Across 62 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Andalusia 3 W falls on 26 March and the median first autumn frost on 7 November, which leaves a median of 227 days between them.

In 1981 to 2016 the median growing season was 223 days. That is 8 days fewer than in 1939 to 1975.

Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by -5.0 days per decade at this station.

Frost dates and growing season at Andalusia 3 W
Measure	Median, all years	Earliest period (1939 to 1975)	Recent period (1981 to 2016)	Recent against earliest	Fitted trend
Last spring frost	26 March	23 March	30 March	7 days later	+2.6 days per decade
First autumn frost	7 November	11 November	6 November	5 days earlier	-2.3 days per decade
Growing days	227 days	231 days	223 days	8 days fewer	-5.0 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.

50 years	334.3 mm (13.2 in)
100 years	429.6 mm (16.9 in)	Longer than the 74 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, 74 years of values from 1939 to 2016.

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: 454.2 mm (17.9 in) in 1998; 325.1 mm (12.8 in) in 1995; 313.4 mm (12.3 in) in 1990.

Climate Twins

2000 to 2016 against 1961 to 1990

Over 2000 to 2016, Andalusia 3 W had a mean temperature of 18.3 C (64.9 F) and 1,330.0 mm (52.4 in) of rain a year. The 3 stations whose 1961 to 1990 climate was closest to that are Albany 3 SE (United States, 227 km away), Charleston Intl AP (United States, 636 km away) and Douglas (United States, 352 km away).

Twin station	Country	Distance away	Mean temperature, 1961-1990	Rain a year, 1961-1990	Climate difference
Albany 3 SE	United States	227 km (141 mi)	18.3 C (65.0 F)	1,296.6 mm (51.0 in)	0.37
Charleston Intl AP	United States	636 km (395 mi)	18.4 C (65.2 F)	1,309.5 mm (51.6 in)	0.43
Douglas	United States	352 km (219 mi)	18.4 C (65.2 F)	1,305.7 mm (51.4 in)	0.44

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.
