The first time you attempt to open the rain database, the software will prompt you to indicate

this can take some time).

The top section of the Yearly Rainfall window displays the amount of rainfall each
month for every year in your database and the total rainfall for each year. The bot-
tom section shows the minimum, maximum, and average rainfall amounts for
each month and year in the database.
Note:
Dashes indicate that no data exists for a particular month.
