For the author:

If 7000 mm/m2, how much for another area? Correct this! Boris

Crkvice (42.34N 18.38E) on Orjen in Montenegro is the wettest place in Europe. The average annual precipitation for the period 1931-1960 was 4927 mm/m²y and for 1961-1990 4631 mm/m². The highest amounts per year surpass 7000 mm/m² with an all time historic high at 8036 mm/m²y (1937).

"Wettest place in Europe"

No reference is cited for this claim. I have a reference that contradicts it. The stated values for Crkvice are 4927 mm (l/m²) and for 1961-1990 4631 mm. This, however, states:

Mýrdalsjökull received more than 10,000 mm/yr of precipitation for the period 1971-2000. The modeled precipitation in Figure 9 fits well with data from glacier mass balance measurements and from observations at meteorological stations in Iceland (Crochet et al, 2007).

Mýrdalsjökull is the glacier on top of the volcano Katla, the "big sister" of the more famous Eyjafjallajökull, which also gets extraordinary amounts of precipitation, as do small parts of Vatnajökull, the largest glacier in Europe.

Perhaps Crkvice is the wettest inhabited place in Europe? -- 213.176.153.100 (talk) 14:17, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Barring any other feedback, I'm going to adjust the article to refer to it as the wettest inhabited place in Europe. -- 213.176.153.100 (talk) 09:48, 7 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The data from Mýrdalsjökull is estimated. Please, PLEASE! Let's separate OBSERVED from estimated data. There is a legion of meteorologists out there collecting data daily, sometimes under really harsh conditions, most unpaid, making sure the weather station is calibrated correctly, for their work to be put at a parallel with numbers a computer model spat out.

Let's pay homage to these people by only observing their data as valid. 192.223.136.5 (talk) 18:44, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
