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
73 years with a frostAcross 73 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Milford Gm Proving Ground falls on 10 May and the median first autumn frost on 12 October, which leaves a median of 154 days between them.
In 1973 to 2019 the median growing season was 151 days. That is 4 days more than in 1928 to 1958.
Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +0.2 days per decade at this station.
| Measure | Median, all years | Earliest period (1928 to 1958) | Recent period (1973 to 2019) | Recent against earliest | Fitted trend |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Last spring frost | 10 May | 10 May | 10 May | no change | +0.2 days per decade |
| First autumn frost | 12 October | 5 October | 10 October | 5 days later | +0.5 days per decade |
| Growing days | 154 days | 147 days | 151 days | 4 days more | +0.2 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
77 years, 1928 to 2019A day with at least 48.9 mm (1.9 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 135.5 mm (5.3 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.
| Expected about once in | A day with at least | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 2 years | 48.9 mm (1.9 in) | |
| 5 years | 67.1 mm (2.6 in) | |
| 10 years | 81.0 mm (3.2 in) | |
| 25 years | 100.7 mm (4.0 in) | |
| 50 years | 117.3 mm (4.6 in) | |
| 100 years | 135.5 mm (5.3 in) | Longer than the 77 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, 77 years of values from 1928 to 2019.
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: 148.8 mm (5.9 in) in 1968; 129.0 mm (5.1 in) in 1981; 111.3 mm (4.4 in) in 1959.

Climate Twins
2003 to 2019 against 1961 to 1990Over 2003 to 2019, Milford Gm Proving Ground had a mean temperature of 8.6 C (47.6 F) and 927.7 mm (36.5 in) of rain a year. The 3 stations whose 1961 to 1990 climate was closest to that are Grand Rapids (United States, 156 km away), Allegan 5NE (United States, 172 km away) and Angola (United States, 150 km away).
| Twin station | Country | Distance away | Mean temperature, 1961-1990 | Rain a year, 1961-1990 | Climate difference |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Grand Rapids | United States | 156 km (97 mi) | 8.6 C (47.4 F) | 941.7 mm (37.1 in) | 0.36 |
| Allegan 5NE | United States | 172 km (107 mi) | 8.6 C (47.5 F) | 971.0 mm (38.2 in) | 0.39 |
| Angola | United States | 150 km (93 mi) | 8.5 C (47.3 F) | 905.2 mm (35.6 in) | 0.43 |
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.
