Default Rainfall deficit

The current rainfall deficit in Tideswell is quite substantial. As of
yesterday the following are the figures:

30-day running total: 52% of average
60-day running total: 41% of average
90-day running total: 35% of average
120-day running total: 33% of average
180-day running total: 67% of average
365-day running total: 91% of average

I appreciate that seasonal variation has a part to play in these
figures but, on average, the driest months of the year here are April
and September and these months don't come into the 30-day to 120-day
totals
shown above, apart from a few days of April in the 120-day total.
