    Metadata Updated: October 19, 2024

    This GIS grid atlas contains precipitation frequency estimates for the Hawaiian Islands is based on precipitation data collected between 1/1905-12/2005. This atlas is an update to Technical Paper No. 43 'Rainfall-Frequency Atlas of the Hawaiian Islands for Areas to 200 Square Miles, Durations to 24 Hours, and Return Periods from 1 to 100 Years' (U.S. Weather Bureau, 1962) and Technical Paper No. 51 'Two- to Ten-Day Rainfall for Return Periods of 2 to 100 Years in the Hawaiian Islands' (U.S. Weather Bureau, 1965).
