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.

| First autumn frost | 17 September | 15 September | 18 September | 3 days later | -0.2 days per decade |
| Growing days | 109 days | 110 days | 106 days | 4 days fewer | -0.1 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
73 years, 1952 to 2025A day with at least 18.7 mm (0.7 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 55.6 mm (2.2 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.
| Expected about once in | A day with at least | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 2 years | 18.7 mm (0.7 in) | |
| 5 years | 26.9 mm (1.1 in) | |
| 10 years | 32.9 mm (1.3 in) | |
| 25 years | 41.3 mm (1.6 in) | |
| 50 years | 48.2 mm (1.9 in) | |
| 100 years | 55.6 mm (2.2 in) | Longer than the 73 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, 73 years of values from 1952 to 2025.
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: 52.3 mm (2.1 in) in 1965; 42.2 mm (1.7 in) in 2000; 40.6 mm (1.6 in) in 1974.

Climate Twins
2010 to 2025 against 1961 to 1990Over 2010 to 2025, Rawlins AP had a mean temperature of 6.7 C (44.1 F) and 214.1 mm (8.4 in) of rain a year. The 3 stations whose 1961 to 1990 climate was closest to that are Bates Creek #2 (United States, 114 km away), Flaming Gorge (United States, 208 km away) and Rock Springs (United States, 170 km away).
| Twin station | Country | Distance away | Mean temperature, 1961-1990 | Rain a year, 1961-1990 | Climate difference |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bates Creek #2 | United States | 114 km (71 mi) | 7.2 C (44.9 F) | 315.9 mm (12.4 in) | 0.87 |
| Flaming Gorge | United States | 208 km (129 mi) | 6.7 C (44.0 F) | 304.6 mm (12.0 in) | 0.90 |
| Rock Springs | United States | 170 km (106 mi) | 6.6 C (43.9 F) | 239.7 mm (9.4 in) | 0.91 |
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.
