The levels come from a generalised extreme value (GEV) distribution fitted by L-moments to the wettest-day total of each year, 51 years of values from 1910 to 2020.

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: 106.2 mm (4.2 in) in 1910; 52.1 mm (2.1 in) in 1982; 45.2 mm (1.8 in) in 2018.

Climate Twins

1992 to 2020 against 1961 to 1990

Over 1992 to 2020, Long Creek had a mean temperature of 8.4 C (47.1 F) and 399.8 mm (15.7 in) of rain a year. The 3 stations whose 1961 to 1990 climate was closest to that are Lava Beds Nat Mon (United States, 386 km away), Malin 5 E (United States, 350 km away) and Condon (United States, 103 km away).

Twins are stations, not cities. A twin is one of the three stations at least 100 km away whose earlier climate is closest to this station's recent one, so a close match does not mean the two places look alike in other ways. A station move or a gap in a record can change that station's averages. The list describes past climate; it is not a forecast and does not say what caused any change. How twins are found, and a search for any station.
