A year with missing days can understate an extreme.

Rainfall Return Levels

40 years, 1955 to 2006

A day with at least 28.0 mm (1.1 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 125.3 mm (4.9 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Cadney Park (Arckaringa Statio: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	28.0 mm (1.1 in)
5 years	46.4 mm (1.8 in)
10 years	61.2 mm (2.4 in)
25 years	83.5 mm (3.3 in)
50 years	103.0 mm (4.1 in)	Longer than the 40 years of record
100 years	125.3 mm (4.9 in)	Longer than the 40 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, 40 years of values from 1955 to 2006.

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: 168.9 mm (6.6 in) in 1984; 66.0 mm (2.6 in) in 1989; 59.4 mm (2.3 in) in 1976.
