One-day precipitation amounts over 300 mm are exceptional in the climate of Central Europe. They were recorded only three times within the time span of more than a hundred years: 29th July 1897 in Bohemia at the station Nová Louka/Neuwiese (345.1 mm), 5th July 1947 in Austria at the station Semmering (323.2 mm) and 12th August 2002 in Germany at the station Zinnwald-Georgenfeld (312.0 mm). The hitherto unbroken record daily precipitation amount thus remains the oldest one.
