Average Rainfall for selected stations in the
Mt Lofty Ranges rated from highest to lowest

Previous Page

How much rain can you expect to receive in your area? Here is a list of rainfall
stations from selected areas around the Southern Mt Lofty Ranges. The highest
station is not surprising, but have a look down a bit further - I bet one or
two of these spots are wetter than you realised and others drier than you thought!
