(1880 for precipitation. In 1960s into the 1970s with small number of stations for mainly precipitation and temperature (max, min, wet and dry), also inclusive of evaporation, sunshine hours and wind run. Please note however that the period 1990s to the late 2000s has the dataset maximum for these stations numbering about 21. The period 2009 to present saw the addition of about 95 automated stations which represents nearly 50% the stations currently in the network.)
