[RESOLVED] Inconsistent Output

[pgag45]

I wrote a rather simple method that, with a rather large dataset consisting of climate data for a specific region, calculates the wettest year (year with the most rainfall). Rainfall is one column of many, which has a value for every day, of every month, of every year for about 25 years worth of data. (Each day has its own row).

Anyway, the below code always determines the correct year, except the amount of rain is not always right. When run first the number is correct, but after running again (or other methods which do sort the data differently, but don't change any values) the value is incorrect. The only things I can think that are affecting the code is incorrect sorting or incorrect rounding errors. Any help? Am I too confusing? Thanks

Sub findWettestYear()
Sheets("CLIMLONG").Activate
lastRow = Sheets("CLIMLONG").UsedRange.Rows.Count
Dim startRange As Range
Set startRange = Worksheets("CLIMLONG").Range("A2:N" & lastRow)
 
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
 
With startRange
        .Sort Key1:=Range("E2"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlGuess, OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:= _
        False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom, DataOption1:=xlSortNormal
End With
 
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

tempRain = 0
Dim tempYear As Integer
tempYear = 0
 
Dim highRain As Double
highRain = -1
Dim highYear As Integer
highYear = 0
 
Dim y As Integer
y = 0
 
For x = 2 To lastRow
    tempYear = Sheets("CLIMLONG").Cells(x, 5)
    tempRain = 0
    y = x
    While tempYear = Sheets("CLIMLONG").Cells(y, 5)
        tempRain = tempRain + Sheets("CLIMLONG").Cells(y, 6).Value
        y = y + 1
    Wend
    If tempRain > highRain Then
        highRain = tempRain
        highYear = tempYear
    End If
    x = y + 1
Next x
    
If highYear < 100 Then 'makes 97 into 1997
    highYear = highYear + 1900
End If
 
lbl4.Caption = "Wettest Year is " & highYear & "."
lbl5.Caption = "With " & Format(highRain, "Standard") & " Inches of Rainfall."
