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

Thiès lies in the same rainfall cell, so its rainfall figures are identical to these; temperatures differ because they come from smaller 0.1° cells.
