10 years	49.0 mm (1.9 in)
25 years	63.9 mm (2.5 in)
50 years	76.9 mm (3.0 in)
100 years	91.7 mm (3.6 in)

The levels come from a generalised extreme value (GEV) distribution fitted by L-moments to the wettest-day total of each year, 101 years of values from 1887 to 1987.

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: 145.0 mm (5.7 in) in 1921; 63.5 mm (2.5 in) in 1910; 61.2 mm (2.4 in) in 1914.
