Sources, method and limits

How these numbers are made (what the highs, lows and rain days mean, the sources and the model cell used for Santo Domingo Oeste) is explained once on the Santo Domingo Oeste year overview and on the Sources, method and limits page.

Santo Domingo and San Cristóbal lie in the same rainfall cell, so their rainfall figures are identical to these; temperatures differ because they come from smaller 0.1° cells.
