You need to find a figure from somewhere near to you, otherwise the figure is meaningless. Even a figure from near to may not really represent your particular location. Unfortunately the nearest station to you on the Cumulus user map, in Llandudno, hasn't updated since March. You could take the figure from Rob's site in Valley if you really want to have something to put in there.

There are several stations around Colwyn Bay and one at Holywell. Have a look on WUnderground at these stations yearly total and you won't be too far off.

Cumulus has a feature which allows you to upload to WUnderground which you might want to look at once your station is operating.
