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

90 years with a frost

Across 90 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at World Trade Ctr falls on 8 April and the median first autumn frost on 12 November, which leaves a median of 219 days between them.

In 1932 to 2023 the median growing season was 226 days. That is 9 days more than in 1872 to 1901.

Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +2.1 days per decade at this station.

Frost dates and growing season at World Trade Ctr

First autumn frost12 November12 November16 November4 days later+0.8 days per decade
Growing days219 days217 days226 days9 days more+2.1 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

91 years, 1871 to 2023

A day with at least 70.6 mm (2.8 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 171.5 mm (6.8 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

50 years153.1 mm (6.0 in)
100 years171.5 mm (6.8 in)Longer than the 91 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, 91 years of values from 1871 to 2023.

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: 203.5 mm (8.0 in) in 1903; 156.7 mm (6.2 in) in 1882; 148.8 mm (5.9 in) in 1955.

Station Changes

1 suspected

One change was suspected in the annual mean temperature of World Trade Ctr, at 1927. Each is measured against neighbouring stations.

  • Relative to 5 neighbouring stations, the station's annual mean temperature from 1927 ran 0.2 C (0.3 F) higher than in the years before (likely 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.
