Across 89 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Waynesboro 2 W falls on 22 March and the median first autumn frost on 2 November, which leaves a median of 223 days between them.

In 1990 to 2025 the median growing season was 229 days. That is 3 days more than in 1895 to 1954.

Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +0.8 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

99 years, 1898 to 2025

A day with at least 97.6 mm (3.8 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 250.0 mm (9.8 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, 99 years of values from 1898 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: 323.9 mm (12.8 in) in 2018; 229.6 mm (9.0 in) in 1928; 214.6 mm (8.4 in) in 2012.

Station Changes

2 suspected

2 changes were suspected in the annual mean temperature of Waynesboro 2 W, at 1964 and 1974. Each is measured against neighbouring stations.

  • Relative to 5 neighbouring stations, the station's annual mean temperature from 1964 ran 0.6 C (1.0 F) lower than in the years before (possible change).
  • Relative to 5 neighbouring stations, the station's annual mean temperature from 1974 ran 0.4 C (0.6 F) higher than in the years before (possible change).

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.

Climate Twins

2011 to 2025 against 1961 to 1990

Over 2011 to 2025, Waynesboro 2 W had a mean temperature of 19.3 C (66.7 F) and 1,650.7 mm (65.0 in) of rain a year. The 3 stations whose 1961 to 1990 climate was closest to that are Bogalusa (United States, 150 km away), Columbia (United States, 120 km away) and Amite (United States, 207 km away).

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.
