Mecardo have created a series of regional rainfall charts across the nation in order to compare the current seasonal rainfall on a monthly basis to the long term average levels and the normal/extreme ranges.
Each regional rainfall chart displayed on the update highlights:
* Current season’s monthly rainfall trend (orange line)
* Last season’s monthly rainfall trend (green line)
* Average monthly trend over 50 years (black dotted line)
* 70% range in monthly rainfall over last 50 years (grey shaded zone)
* 95% range (red dotted line)
* Rainfall within the 70% range would be considered reflective of a relatively normal seasonal pattern
* Movements outside the grey 70% range would suggest a drier (below range) or wetter (above range) than normal season
* Movements outside the 95% range would be considered extreme
