Dear,

This is a very efficient way. I have checked some values and it is what is
was looking for.

I want to find the days called dry-weather days. It depends but in my case
it is a dry day if on this day the precipitation "N" is equal or less than
0.3 mm and if on the day before the day with N <= 0.3 mm the precipitation
is also equal or less than 0.3 mm.

With this you can set a periods of rainy and dry weather.

I didn't have time check to other methods but soon I will.

Next I want to take the entire time series from 2010-01-01 unti 2013-12-31.

With your reply I will have two vectors then which I need to combine to
find group into rainy day or dry weather day. I think I am going to us
merge() to put the subset vector back into a original data.frame with all
dates.

At first I want to find the solution by myself. If it won't work I will
post a new question to R-help.

Thanks a lot.

Christoph
