Concise description:
Using the entire period of record of precipitation data for a location, the frequency and distribution of precipitation are ranked. The first decile is composed of the rainfall amounts in which the lowest 10% of the values are not exceeded, and the fifth decile is the median. A wet scale is also available. Daily, weekly, monthly, seasonal and annual values can all be considered in the methodology, as it is flexible when current data are compared to the historical record for any given period.
