<idAbs>Percent of average precipitation represents the total amount of precipitation for a particular location over a specific time period, divided by the long-term average precipitation (1991-2020) for the same period and location, expressed as a percentage. Percent of average precipitation is to provide a clear and standardized way to compare how much precipitation has fallen during a specific time period relative to the long-term average for the same location and time period. On the monthly scale, time periods calculated are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24 months. On the weekly scale, each ISO week is numbered from 1 to 52 (sometimes 53) within a year. An ISO week starts on Monday and ends on Sunday. The time periods can be filtered using the tType field in the service where a suffix "m" denotes a monthly time scale and "w" denotes a weekly time scale.
