Period of Record Coverage
1962 to 2015
Complete yearUnder 90 percent of days
52 years of record at Lagrange, 1962 to 2015. 8 years have data for under 90 percent of days and are left out of rankings: 1975, 2002, 2004, 2005, 2008, 2013, 2014, 2015.
Cooler than the station meanWarmer than the station mean
One stripe for each of 39 complete years at Lagrange, 1962 to 2012. Blue stripes are years cooler than the station's own mean of 9.0 C (48.3 F); red stripes are warmer. The coolest year was 1978, at 7.9 C (46.3 F), and the warmest was 1998, at 11.1 C (52.0 F). The strongest colour marks a difference of 2.1 C (3.8 F).

Longest dry spell (CDD)
The longest dry spell of the year at Lagrange, 1962 to 2015. The record is 32 days in 1979, marked on the chart; the median year is 18 days.

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
39 years with a frost
Across 39 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Lagrange falls on 5 May and the median first autumn frost on 6 October, which leaves a median of 154 days between them.
Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +8.3 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.
Rainfall Return Levels
46 years, 1962 to 2013
A day with at least 55.2 mm (2.2 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 129.8 mm (5.1 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

The levels come from a generalised extreme value (GEV) distribution fitted by L-moments to the wettest-day total of each year, 46 years of values from 1962 to 2013.
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: 108.5 mm (4.3 in) in 1963; 101.9 mm (4.0 in) in 1996; 101.6 mm (4.0 in) in 2009.
