Rainfall return levels at Irishtown: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	41.9 mm (1.6 in)
5 years	53.1 mm (2.1 in)
10 years	62.4 mm (2.5 in)
25 years	77.1 mm (3.0 in)
50 years	90.4 mm (3.6 in)
100 years	106.1 mm (4.2 in)	Longer than the 78 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, 78 years of values from 1907 to 2012.

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: 139.4 mm (5.5 in) in 1947; 83.6 mm (3.3 in) in 2000; 81.0 mm (3.2 in) in 1969.
