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 Thuận An) is explained once on the Thuận An year overview and on the Sources, method and limits page.

Biên Hòa and Thủ Dầu Một lie in the same rainfall cell, so their rainfall figures are identical to these; temperatures differ because they come from smaller 0.1° cells.
