A day with at least 40.7 mm (1.6 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 99.0 mm (3.9 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Gellibrand River West: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	40.7 mm (1.6 in)
5 years	54.2 mm (2.1 in)
10 years	63.9 mm (2.5 in)
25 years	77.2 mm (3.0 in)
50 years	87.8 mm (3.5 in)
100 years	99.0 mm (3.9 in)

The levels come from a generalised extreme value (GEV) distribution fitted by L-moments to the wettest-day total of each year, 102 years of values from 1916 to 2018.

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: 105.0 mm (4.1 in) in 1990; 88.0 mm (3.5 in) in 2010; 86.0 mm (3.4 in) in 2005.
