Now that we are back to summer-like heat indices again (the HI has been getting up to 106°F/41°C lately,) here are more rain statistics to trigger fond memories of the cooling rains last month! This data will be updated at the end of the year; for now it only includes Jan-Sep. And sorry, but the charts are only in inches. First the annuals: the historical avg annual rainfall (2004-2013) is 37.13"/943mm. 2014 has had 40.56"/1030mm (thru Sep 30th). Historical Average Monthly Rainfall: You can see the most of the rain falls from Jun-Oct. Interesting rain bump in February. 2014 Monthly Rainfall: We had a wetter-then-normal June, drier July and August, then had the all-time wettest month on record in September. 2014 Daily Rainfall, Full Year: You can really see that the rainfall was very irregular. 2014 Daily Rain, Summer Only: I've added the storm names that gave us any significant rain. Unnamed rains were from nameless thunderstorms. It's obvious that most of our rain comes from named storms. Too bad we couldn't spread the rain out a little better... Hopefully we can get some cooling rain from Invest 92E soon. Enjoy!
