A year with missing days can understate an extreme.

Rainfall Return Levels

46 years, 1967 to 2022

A day with at least 84.6 mm (3.3 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 185.4 mm (7.3 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Palm Beach (Sunrise Road): the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	84.6 mm (3.3 in)
5 years	111.2 mm (4.4 in)
10 years	128.9 mm (5.1 in)
25 years	151.6 mm (6.0 in)
50 years	168.5 mm (6.6 in)	Longer than the 46 years of record
100 years	185.4 mm (7.3 in)	Longer than the 46 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, 46 years of values from 1967 to 2022.

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: 191.2 mm (7.5 in) in 1978; 165.0 mm (6.5 in) in 1987; 155.4 mm (6.1 in) in 1988.
