The fitted trend in annual mean temperature here over 1911 to 2021 is -0.05 C (-0.10 to 0.01) per decade. The interval includes zero, so the trend is not clearly different from zero. In Fahrenheit: -0.09 F (-0.19 to 0.02) per decade. The slope is a straight line fitted to 78 complete years; the brackets give its 95 percent interval.
| Measure | Per decade (C) | Per decade (F) | Period | Complete years | Reading |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | -0.05 C (-0.10 to 0.01) per decade | -0.09 F (-0.19 to 0.02) per decade | 1911 to 2021 | 78 | Not clearly different from zero |
| Mean daily maximum | -0.07 C (-0.15 to 0.01) per decade | -0.13 F (-0.26 to 0.01) per decade | 1911 to 2021 | 78 | Not clearly different from zero |
| Mean daily minimum | -0.02 C (-0.07 to 0.02) per decade | -0.05 F (-0.13 to 0.04) per decade | 1911 to 2021 | 78 | Not clearly different from zero |
A year is complete when all 12 months have at least 20 days of both daily maximum and daily minimum readings. The annual mean is the mean of the monthly means. The trend describes this one station over this period; it does not say what caused the change.

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
78 years with a frostAcross 78 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Goodwell Rsch STN falls on 23 April and the median first autumn frost on 20 October, which leaves a median of 179 days between them.
In 1986 to 2021 the median growing season was 179 days. That is 5 days fewer than in 1911 to 1964.
Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by -0.3 days per decade at this station.
| Measure | Median, all years | Earliest period (1911 to 1964) | Recent period (1986 to 2021) | Recent against earliest | Fitted trend |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Last spring frost | 23 April | 24 April | 20 April | 4 days earlier | -0.5 days per decade |
| First autumn frost | 20 October | 24 October | 14 October | 10 days earlier | -0.8 days per decade |
| Growing days | 179 days | 184 days | 179 days | 5 days fewer | -0.3 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, 1911 to 2024A day with at least 47.9 mm (1.9 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 120.1 mm (4.7 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.
| Expected about once in | A day with at least | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 2 years | 47.9 mm (1.9 in) | |
| 5 years | 66.0 mm (2.6 in) | |
| 10 years | 78.5 mm (3.1 in) | |
| 25 years | 94.8 mm (3.7 in) | |
| 50 years | 107.3 mm (4.2 in) | |
| 100 years | 120.1 mm (4.7 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 1911 to 2024.
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: 136.7 mm (5.4 in) in 1942; 113.8 mm (4.5 in) in 2024; 98.0 mm (3.9 in) in 1959.
Station Changes
2 suspected2 changes were suspected in the annual mean temperature of Goodwell Rsch STN, at 1995 and 2010. Each is measured against neighbouring stations.
- Relative to 5 neighbouring stations, the station's annual mean temperature from 1995 ran 0.6 C (1.2 F) higher than in the years before (likely change).
- Relative to 5 neighbouring stations, the station's annual mean temperature from 2010 ran 0.5 C (0.9 F) lower than in the years before (likely change).
| Year | Shift (C) | Shift (F) | Strength | Neighbours |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1995 | +0.6 | +1.2 | likely | 5 |
| 2010 | -0.5 | -0.9 | likely | 5 |
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
2007 to 2021 against 1961 to 1990Over 2007 to 2021, Goodwell Rsch STN had a mean temperature of 13.5 C (56.4 F) and 423.7 mm (16.7 in) of rain a year. The 3 stations whose 1961 to 1990 climate was closest to that are Lipscomb (United States, 127 km away), Sublette 7WSW (United States, 110 km away) and Pampa #2 (United States, 129 km away).
| Twin station | Country | Distance away | Mean temperature, 1961-1990 | Rain a year, 1961-1990 | Climate difference |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lipscomb | United States | 127 km (79 mi) | 13.6 C (56.5 F) | 530.1 mm (20.9 in) | 0.86 |
| Sublette 7WSW | United States | 110 km (68 mi) | 13.1 C (55.5 F) | 486.6 mm (19.2 in) | 0.91 |
| Pampa #2 | United States | 129 km (80 mi) | 13.7 C (56.6 F) | 545.1 mm (21.5 in) | 0.92 |
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.
