Calculation of rainfall date [Y*D+C]-L

Interpretation of the formula: the last two digits of the number of years are multiplied by 0.2422 plus 18.74, and the whole number is subtracted from the number of leap years. 2 1 century rainwater c value is 18.73.

For example, the date of rain in 2008 = [8× 0.2422+18.73]-[(8-1)/4] = 20-1= 19, and it rained in February19.

Exception: The calculated rainfall date in 2026 should be reduced by one day, which is 18.
