<P>The climate in Réunion is tropical, but temperature moderates with
elevation. The weather is cool and dry from May to November, and hot and
rainy from November to April. Precipitation levels vary greatly within the
island, with the east being much wetter than the west. There is more than
6m of rain a year on some parts of the east and less than 1m a year on the
west coast.</P>
<P>Between 7 and 8 January 1966, Cilaos at the centre of Réunion received
1,869.9 millimetres (73.62 in) of rainfall. This is the greatest
24-hour precipitation total ever recorded on earth.Another part of the
island holds the record for most rainfall in 72 hours, 3,929 millimetres
(154.7 in) at Commerson's Crater in March 2007 from Cyclone Gamede.
Commerson also holds the record for most rainfall over all periods ranging
from 4 to 15 days from a storm in 1980.<BR><A
