    Explanation:

    Even there was a dry year in 1979, the area received almost the normal amount of rain in 1980.

    In 1981 however, the year was quite dry, with rainfalls in drop of almost 20%, that began one of the most important drought in the history of Brazil.

    In 1982, rainfalls were down by 30% and it got even worse.

    In 1983, the rainfalls were down by about 35%, essentially destroying all the agriculture system that had been severely damaged by the two previous years.

    In 1984, rain came back a bit higher than its traditional levels, and in 1985, the area was flooded by rain surpassing the average by 60%!
