General Monthly Summary (GMS)

The General Monthly Summary (GMS) is a record of weather data, giving daily values, means and averages for a range of weather elements.

The GMS 'weather log' helps farmers and other agriculturists to assess how the weather may have affected their business and specific activities like planting, spraying, irrigation and harvest.

The weather elements covered include:

  • Temperature, maximum and minimum
  • Rainfall
  • Wind, average and maximum gust
  • Sunshine
  • Significant weather - days when thunderstorms, hail, fog, snow and gales were reported
