A day with at least 36.0 mm (1.4 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 86.9 mm (3.4 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Tafelberg Hall: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	36.0 mm (1.4 in)
5 years	48.3 mm (1.9 in)
10 years	57.0 mm (2.2 in)
25 years	68.5 mm (2.7 in)
50 years	77.5 mm (3.1 in)
100 years	86.9 mm (3.4 in)	Longer than the 97 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, 97 years of values from 1888 to 1997.

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: 98.3 mm (3.9 in) in 1915; 88.9 mm (3.5 in) in 1888; 76.5 mm (3.0 in) in 1974.
