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

115 years with a frost

Across 115 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Mt Airy 2 W falls on 24 April and the median first autumn frost on 17 October, which leaves a median of 176 days between them.

In 1993 to 2025 the median growing season was 185 days. That is 12 days more than in 1896 to 1935.

Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +1.4 days per decade at this station.

First autumn frost17 October13 October22 October9 days later+0.8 days per decade
Growing days176 days173 days185 days12 days more+1.4 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

125 years, 1893 to 2025

A day with at least 70.4 mm (2.8 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 156.3 mm (6.2 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

2 years70.4 mm (2.8 in)

25 years126.0 mm (5.0 in)
50 years141.0 mm (5.6 in)
100 years156.3 mm (6.2 in)

The levels come from a generalised extreme value (GEV) distribution fitted by L-moments to the wettest-day total of each year, 125 years of values from 1893 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: 240.0 mm (9.4 in) in 1947; 140.7 mm (5.5 in) in 2016; 127.0 mm (5.0 in) in 1979.

Station Changes

1 suspected

One change was suspected in the annual mean temperature of Mt Airy 2 W, at 1996. Each is measured against neighbouring stations.

  • Relative to 5 neighbouring stations, the station's annual mean temperature from 1996 ran 0.3 C (0.5 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.

Climate Twins

2011 to 2025 against 1961 to 1990

Over 2011 to 2025, Mt Airy 2 W had a mean temperature of 13.7 C (56.6 F) and 1,383.1 mm (54.5 in) of rain a year. The 3 stations whose 1961 to 1990 climate was closest to that are Livingston Radio Wliv (United States, 419 km away), Valley Head (United States, 497 km away) and Sparta Wwtp (United States, 438 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.
