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

66 years with a frost

Across 66 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Solon Springs falls on 30 May and the median first autumn frost on 17 September, which leaves a median of 111 days between them.

In 1978 to 2012 the median growing season was 112 days. That is 5 days more than in 1909 to 1971.

Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +2.8 days per decade at this station.

Frost dates and growing season at Solon Springs
Measure	Median, all years	Earliest period (1909 to 1971)	Recent period (1978 to 2012)	Recent against earliest	Fitted trend
Last spring frost	30 May	2 June	29 May	4 days earlier	-0.9 days per decade
First autumn frost	17 September	14 September	20 September	6 days later	+1.9 days per decade
Growing days	111 days	107 days	112 days	5 days more	+2.8 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

65 years, 1907 to 2007

A day with at least 60.7 mm (2.4 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 172.9 mm (6.8 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Solon Springs: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	60.7 mm (2.4 in)
5 years	84.3 mm (3.3 in)
10 years	102.2 mm (4.0 in)
25 years	127.9 mm (5.0 in)
50 years	149.3 mm (5.9 in)
100 years	172.9 mm (6.8 in)	Longer than the 65 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, 65 years of values from 1907 to 2007.

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: 144.8 mm (5.7 in) in 1978; 142.2 mm (5.6 in) in 1999; 129.5 mm (5.1 in) in 1990.
