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

101 years with a frost

Across 101 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Kenton falls on 2 May and the median first autumn frost on 10 October, which leaves a median of 162 days between them.

In 1968 to 2008 the median growing season was 172 days. That is 12 days more than in 1893 to 1922.

Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +1.6 days per decade at this station.

Frost dates and growing season at Kenton
Measure	Median, all years	Earliest period (1893 to 1922)	Recent period (1968 to 2008)	Recent against earliest	Fitted trend
Last spring frost	2 May	4 May	24 April	10 days earlier	-1.2 days per decade
First autumn frost	10 October	9 October	13 October	4 days later	+0.5 days per decade
Growing days	162 days	160 days	172 days	12 days more	+1.6 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

101 years, 1900 to 2009

A day with at least 53.2 mm (2.1 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 101.4 mm (4.0 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Kenton: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	53.2 mm (2.1 in)
5 years	67.3 mm (2.6 in)
10 years	76.1 mm (3.0 in)
25 years	86.8 mm (3.4 in)
50 years	94.3 mm (3.7 in)
100 years	101.4 mm (4.0 in)

The levels come from a generalised extreme value (GEV) distribution fitted by L-moments to the wettest-day total of each year, 101 years of values from 1900 to 2009.

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: 93.0 mm (3.7 in) in 1937; 92.7 mm (3.6 in) in 1915; 91.4 mm (3.6 in) in 1913.
