Hi,
I am still working on a dashboard for my weather data sheet.
I have rainfall data for each month for many years.
I would like to see in the dashboard the highest value for rainfall for each month and in which year it happened.
Something like this (Fictitious data):

JanFebMarAprMayJunJulAugSepOct
15996497413082219658874
2020202020142019201520182018201720192016

I made up a mock spreadsheet with some fictitious data. I had to limit the amount of cells as L2BB only allows for 300 cells maximum. But I hope you will get the gist to see what I mean.
I have listed 5 days of the first three months over three years to limit the amount of data. In real life I got data 365(6) days for each year and it's all in two columns: Dates and Rain gauge readings.
So, the function I'm after will need to calculate the total for each month, then compare the totals for that particular month over the years and then list the sum result for that month and show the year when it happened.
I hope this will make sense as it is not easy for me to put it in proper English (English is not my first language), sorry).
Here's a copy of that code:

Obviously I wont' have the totals for each month in my datasheet as I want to keep the datasheet just for pure data and not for formulas or data manipulation. These totals are just there to give you an indication what the total should be.
I hope somebody can assist with this. I've been racking my brains for many days but I just haven't got enough skills to work this out.
I am using Excel 2016.
Many thanks for your help in advance!
Luke
