Winter rainfall record

Post by Len Wood » Wed Mar 02, 2016 8:29 pm

Looking at Wembury's winter rainfall there is a increasing trend of magnitude 74 mm 1985 to 2016.
The standard deviation (expected variation about the average) is 105 mm.
As the trend is less than the standard deviation I assume the trend is not statistically significant.
