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

45 years with a frost

Across 45 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Terre Haute Indiana State falls on 17 April and the median first autumn frost on 15 October, which leaves a median of 180 days between them.

Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +0.9 days per decade at this station.

Frost dates and growing season at Terre Haute Indiana State
Measure	Median, all years	Earliest period	Recent period (1970 to 2011)	Recent against earliest	Fitted trend
Last spring frost	17 April	n/a	17 April	n/a	-1.8 days per decade
First autumn frost	15 October	n/a	13 October	n/a	-0.9 days per decade
Growing days	180 days	n/a	175 days	n/a	+0.9 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

45 years, 1955 to 2011

A day with at least 61.8 mm (2.4 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 150.1 mm (5.9 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Terre Haute Indiana State: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	61.8 mm (2.4 in)
5 years	82.9 mm (3.3 in)
10 years	97.8 mm (3.9 in)
25 years	117.9 mm (4.6 in)
50 years	133.6 mm (5.3 in)	Longer than the 45 years of record
100 years	150.1 mm (5.9 in)	Longer than the 45 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, 45 years of values from 1955 to 2011.

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: 134.6 mm (5.3 in) in 2003; 118.9 mm (4.7 in) in 1973; 116.6 mm (4.6 in) in 2008.
