jenny,
the highest daily rainfall graph appears to actually be June's data.
atleast for Reefton the 82.9mm was recorded in June.
my highest in August was 35.2mm
the others seem right.

[JennyLeez]

Yep you were correct, it was June's. I was just testing to see if anyone was reading these graphs 
It is now correct. Thanks for your help

[einzack]
