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
68 years with a frostAcross 68 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Gull Lake Dam falls on 11 May and the median first autumn frost on 30 September, which leaves a median of 145 days between them.
In 1983 to 2025 the median growing season was 152 days. That is 12 days more than in 1913 to 1973.
Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +3.0 days per decade at this station.
| Measure | Median, all years | Earliest period (1913 to 1973) | Recent period (1983 to 2025) | Recent against earliest | Fitted trend |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Last spring frost | 11 May | 13 May | 8 May | 5 days earlier | -1.4 days per decade |
| First autumn frost | 30 September | 25 September | 3 October | 8 days later | +1.6 days per decade |
| Growing days | 145 days | 140 days | 152 days | 12 days more | +3.0 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
68 years, 1911 to 2010A day with at least 53.5 mm (2.1 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 129.4 mm (5.1 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.
| Expected about once in | A day with at least | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 2 years | 53.5 mm (2.1 in) | |
| 5 years | 71.6 mm (2.8 in) | |
| 10 years | 84.4 mm (3.3 in) | |
| 25 years | 101.6 mm (4.0 in) | |
| 50 years | 115.2 mm (4.5 in) | |
| 100 years | 129.4 mm (5.1 in) | Longer than the 68 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, 68 years of values from 1911 to 2010.
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: 149.9 mm (5.9 in) in 1952; 131.1 mm (5.2 in) in 2002; 90.9 mm (3.6 in) in 1968.
Station Changes
2 suspected2 changes were suspected in the annual mean temperature of Gull Lake Dam, at 1960 and 2019. Each is measured against neighbouring stations.
- Relative to 5 neighbouring stations, the station's annual mean temperature from 1960 ran 0.4 C (0.6 F) lower than in the years before (likely change).
- Relative to 5 neighbouring stations, the station's annual mean temperature from 2019 ran 0.3 C (0.6 F) higher than in the years before (possible change).
| Year | Shift (C) | Shift (F) | Strength | Neighbours |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1960 | -0.4 | -0.6 | likely | 5 |
| 2019 | +0.3 | +0.6 | possible | 5 |
Possible change at the station (a move, a new instrument or a new site); the record is kept as measured. A "likely" change has a larger test statistic than a "possible" one. Neither says why the station differs from its neighbours. How changes are found, and the largest ones.
