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

69 years with a frost

Across 69 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Bloomfield 3 SE falls on 2 May and the median first autumn frost on 16 October, which leaves a median of 167 days between them.

In 1964 to 2015 the median growing season was 175 days. That is 31 days more than in 1905 to 1952.

Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +5.0 days per decade at this station.

Frost dates and growing season at Bloomfield 3 SE
Measure	Median, all years	Earliest period (1905 to 1952)	Recent period (1964 to 2015)	Recent against earliest	Fitted trend
Last spring frost	2 May	11 May	26 April	15 days earlier	-2.6 days per decade
First autumn frost	16 October	5 October	20 October	15 days later	+2.3 days per decade
Growing days	167 days	144 days	175 days	31 days more	+5.0 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

94 years, 1905 to 2017

A day with at least 23.4 mm (0.9 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 66.9 mm (2.6 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Bloomfield 3 SE: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	23.4 mm (0.9 in)
5 years	33.0 mm (1.3 in)
10 years	40.0 mm (1.6 in)
25 years	50.0 mm (2.0 in)
50 years	58.1 mm (2.3 in)
100 years	66.9 mm (2.6 in)	Longer than the 94 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, 94 years of values from 1905 to 2017.

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: 101.6 mm (4.0 in) in 1983; 62.2 mm (2.4 in) in 1941; 55.9 mm (2.2 in) in 1998.
