This chart shows the range and probability of specific precipitation totals. For example, there is about a 2% chance of getting just 35 inches of precipitation in a year. But if you look at the distribution of rainfall (historical rainfall amounts are shown by the blue bars, while the line graph smooths out this distribution), you can see that most years you are likely to get more precipitation than 35 inches.
