Rainfall Return Levels

39 years, 1973 to 2017

A day with at least 45.8 mm (1.8 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 105.9 mm (4.2 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Burns Creek (Janefield): the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	45.8 mm (1.8 in)
5 years	60.9 mm (2.4 in)
10 years	71.2 mm (2.8 in)
25 years	84.8 mm (3.3 in)
50 years	95.2 mm (3.7 in)	Longer than the 39 years of record
100 years	105.9 mm (4.2 in)	Longer than the 39 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, 39 years of values from 1973 to 2017.

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: 103.0 mm (4.1 in) in 2005; 81.2 mm (3.2 in) in 2016; 76.4 mm (3.0 in) in 1976.
