SoE2017: Extreme weather events (days with 'very heavy rainfall')

Created 05/05/2025

Updated 05/05/2025

Frequency of days with very heavy rainfall, for selected weather stations, compiled based on data from the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) High-Quality Australian Daily Rainfall Dataset (to 2017) as at February 2018. Subsequent updates to data may result in minor changes to some values. For each location days per year with very heavy rainfall are plotted for the extent of the High-Quality Dataset records, years with more than five days of missing data not being included. Rolling 10-year averages are plotted only if there are 10 consecutive years of annual data.
