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
44 years with a frostAcross 44 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Kingston Springs falls on 15 April and the median first autumn frost on 19 October, which leaves a median of 186 days between them.
Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +4.2 days per decade at this station.
| Measure | Median, all years | Earliest period | Recent period (1979 to 2024) | Recent against earliest | Fitted trend |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Last spring frost | 15 April | n/a | 12 April | n/a | -1.1 days per decade |
| First autumn frost | 19 October | n/a | 20 October | n/a | +3.2 days per decade |
| Growing days | 186 days | n/a | 190 days | n/a | +4.2 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

The levels come from a generalised extreme value (GEV) distribution fitted by L-moments to the wettest-day total of each year, 67 years of values from 1942 to 2014.
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: 231.1 mm (9.1 in) in 2010; 192.3 mm (7.6 in) in 1979; 133.4 mm (5.3 in) in 1998.

Climate Twins
2004 to 2024 against 1961 to 1990Over 2004 to 2024, Kingston Springs had a mean temperature of 14.8 C (58.7 F) and 1,228.3 mm (48.4 in) of rain a year. The 3 stations whose 1961 to 1990 climate was closest to that are Knoxville AP (United States, 283 km away), Evening Shade 1 NNE (United States, 404 km away) and Jackson Exp STN (United States, 165 km away).
| Twin station | Country | Distance away | Mean temperature, 1961-1990 | Rain a year, 1961-1990 | Climate difference |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Knoxville AP | United States | 283 km (176 mi) | 14.7 C (58.4 F) | 1,197.8 mm (47.2 in) | 0.48 |
| Evening Shade 1 NNE | United States | 404 km (251 mi) | 14.7 C (58.5 F) | 1,173.3 mm (46.2 in) | 0.51 |

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.
