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
31 years with a frostAcross 31 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Poplar Montana falls on 11 May and the median first autumn frost on 23 September, which leaves a median of 136 days between them.
