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

59 years with a frost

Across 59 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Wetumpka falls on 17 March and the median first autumn frost on 9 November, which leaves a median of 235 days between them.

Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +1.2 days per decade at this station.

Frost dates and growing season at Wetumpka
Measure	Median, all years	Earliest period	Recent period (1928 to 2016)	Recent against earliest	Fitted trend
Last spring frost	17 March	n/a	17 March	n/a	-0.6 days per decade
First autumn frost	9 November	n/a	9 November	n/a	+0.5 days per decade
Growing days	235 days	n/a	236 days	n/a	+1.2 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

112 years, 1894 to 2023

A day with at least 86.0 mm (3.4 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 217.2 mm (8.6 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Wetumpka: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	86.0 mm (3.4 in)
5 years	118.1 mm (4.6 in)
10 years	140.5 mm (5.5 in)
25 years	170.2 mm (6.7 in)
50 years	193.4 mm (7.6 in)
100 years	217.2 mm (8.6 in)

The levels come from a generalised extreme value (GEV) distribution fitted by L-moments to the wettest-day total of each year, 112 years of values from 1894 to 2023.

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: 205.7 mm (8.1 in) in 1961; 194.3 mm (7.6 in) in 1995; 177.0 mm (7.0 in) in 1953.
