Svend O. Heiberg Memorial Forest is a 3,800-acre (1,500-hectare) research forest located in parts of Onondaga and Cortland counties, and within the towns of Truxton, Preble, Fabius, and Tully in New York State.
Tully has a tropical rainforest climate (Köppen climate classification Af). This is due to its strong exposure to the southeasterly trade winds . With an average annual rainfall exceeding 4,000 millimetres (160 in), and the highest-ever annual rainfall in a populated area of Australia (7,900 millimetres (310 in) in 1950), Tully is arguably the ...
Tully Training Area is approximately 13,300 hectares (33,000 acres). It is 11 kilometres (6.8 mi) north-west of Tully. [1]The Tully Military Training Area (TTA) is part of the Wet Tropics biogeographic region, which runs along the coast from the Cedar Bay/Daintree region in the north to just short of Townsville in the south, and includes the elevated Atherton plateau.
According to the Köppen climate classification system, Tullytown has a humid subtropical climate (Cfa). Cfa climates are characterized by all months having an average mean temperature > 32.0 °F (0.0 °C), at least four months with an average mean temperature ≥ 50.0 °F (10.0 °C), at least one month with an average mean temperature ≥ 71.6 °F (22.0 °C) and no significant precipitation ...
[2] [3] Babinda and Tully annually compete for the Golden Gumboot, an award for Australia's wettest town. Babinda is usually the winner, recording an annual average rainfall of over 4,279.4 millimetres (168.48 in) each year. [4] In the 2021 census, the locality of Babinda had a population of 1,287 people. [5]
Despite the fact that Babinda has had more rainfall than Tully in the last 40 years, The Golden Gumboot monument was opened in Tully by the Tully Lions and Rotary Clubs in May 2003. The project cost, including in-kind contributions, was $90,000. The boot is 7.9 metres (25.9 ft) and represents the record rainfall for Tully in 1950.
And, as both Curb and Baker pointed out, the NOAA Atlas 14 precipitation data isn't exactly hot off the presses. Its statistical review charts rainfall patterns from 1840 to 2012.
The 1950 rainfall records for the Australian states of New South Wales and Queensland reported probably the most remarkable record high rainfall totals ever recorded anywhere in the continent. Averaged over both of these states, 1950 is clearly the wettest year since adequate records became available circa 1885.
