Abstract

The rainfall data for 59 years (1917-1975) of Raichur was analysed to study the wet spells month wise by applying logarithmic series to end the distribution pattern of rainfall. The frequency of wet spells were estimated for each month from April to December which are in close agreement with observed frequencies. The probabilities of persistence of rainfall on the (r+1)st day. if the rain had occurred on the preceding r days were also calculated.
