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

85 years with a frost

Across 85 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Gilbert falls on 17 April and the median first autumn frost on 16 October, which leaves a median of 183 days between them.

In 1996 to 2025 the median growing season was 190 days. That is 11 days more than in 1937 to 1967.

Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +1.7 days per decade at this station.

Frost dates and growing season at Gilbert
Measure	Median, all years	Earliest period (1937 to 1967)	Recent period (1996 to 2025)	Recent against earliest	Fitted trend
Last spring frost	17 April	20 April	16 April	4 days earlier	-0.5 days per decade
First autumn frost	16 October	16 October	23 October	7 days later	+1.2 days per decade
Growing days	183 days	179 days	190 days	11 days more	+1.7 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

97 years, 1925 to 2025

A day with at least 79.6 mm (3.1 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 168.8 mm (6.6 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Gilbert: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	79.6 mm (3.1 in)
5 years	102.7 mm (4.0 in)
10 years	118.3 mm (4.7 in)
25 years	138.4 mm (5.4 in)
50 years	153.5 mm (6.0 in)
100 years	168.8 mm (6.6 in)	Longer than the 97 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, 97 years of values from 1925 to 2025.

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: 161.3 mm (6.4 in) in 2008; 160.5 mm (6.3 in) in 1985; 145.3 mm (5.7 in) in 1927.

Climate Twins

2011 to 2025 against 1961 to 1990

Over 2011 to 2025, Gilbert had a mean temperature of 14.6 C (58.2 F) and 1,215.4 mm (47.9 in) of rain a year. The 3 stations whose 1961 to 1990 climate was closest to that are Knoxville AP (United States, 786 km away), Columbia 3 WNW (United States, 509 km away) and Nashville Intl AP (United States, 542 km away).

Twin station	Country	Distance away	Mean temperature, 1961-1990	Rain a year, 1961-1990	Climate difference
Knoxville AP	United States	786 km (488 mi)	14.7 C (58.4 F)	1,197.8 mm (47.2 in)	0.51
Columbia 3 WNW	United States	509 km (316 mi)	14.6 C (58.2 F)	1,301.0 mm (51.2 in)	0.61
Nashville Intl AP	United States	542 km (337 mi)	15.0 C (59.0 F)	1,202.2 mm (47.3 in)	0.61

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.
