Where minor amounts of data were missing, statistical estimates were used. Where major amounts of data were missing, the first previous good record year prior to 1931 was substituted. The probability of receiving specific amounts of precipitation for various periods was determined using a technique agreed upon by the Western Regional Technical Committee consisting of one representative from the Agricultural Experiment Station in each of the 11 Western states. The technique consisted of fitting a mathematical model to the precipitation observations. The technique is described in the North Central Region publications by Freidman and Janes.
