Rainfall to date tool for Western Australia

Please note: This content may be out of date and is currently under review.

Rainfall to date graphs show the amount of rainfall accumulated from the start of the grain growing season and can be used as a tool in the seasonal decision-making process.

The graphs are produced using daily rainfall data from the Patched Point data set and data from the department's upgraded DPIRD Weather Website. When data for an AWS is unavailable, data from the geographically closest Patched Point station is used. For example, many of the AWS only began recording data recently, so historical data from the closest Patched Point station is used to create pseudo rainfall deciles.
