A day with at least 38.7 mm (1.5 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 138.1 mm (5.4 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Cobar (Tindarey): the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	38.7 mm (1.5 in)
5 years	57.7 mm (2.3 in)
10 years	72.9 mm (2.9 in)
25 years	95.6 mm (3.8 in)
50 years	115.4 mm (4.5 in)
100 years	138.1 mm (5.4 in)	Longer than the 84 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, 84 years of values from 1882 to 2008.

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: 163.6 mm (6.4 in) in 1891; 107.7 mm (4.2 in) in 1956; 93.5 mm (3.7 in) in 1944.
