My wife says I'm very sad, but having originated in an area famous for it's constant rain and now living in an area that is technically desert I can't help being interested in just how much rain we do get here. I've also found that, unlike Northern Europeans, Australians are much more interested in when it rains than when it's sunny!
The daily or monthly rainfall is the shown by the blue bars and the 30 year average monthly rainfall by the orange line. Note that the graphs don't all have the same scale on the y axis.
