Will Kollur cross the 10000 mm rainfall mark in 2011 - List of places other than Cherrapunji & Mawsynram which has achieved the feat is given below

As i was wondering whether Kollur which is having a amazing run of rainfall 4452 mm (from 01.06.2011 to 21.07.2011 - 51 days) from others places in 2011 is an one off event, whether there are other places which has got Extraordinary Rainfall (10000 mms in a year) previously. I have excluded Cherrapunji and Mawsynarm from the list since its routine for them to achieve 10000 mm every year . Mostly the data were only available upto the year 1970.
