so I am curious about your area's stats for all this rain this year
is your area at normal levels or way above normal rainfall and other precip for the year
its the 2nd year here for Below Normal... for this year last i heard its about 5 inches below the long average and turning into the midWest desert
Really don't know the amount, but it's far above normal than other years. Seems about every 20 years we get a year like this thats far above normal...it goes in cycles.so I am curious about your area's stats for all this rain this year

The amount of rain here goes in cycles...seem's every 20 years we get a big precipitation year, but usually it's in the spring we get a lot of rain. Can't ever recall such a wet late summer. It's suppose to rain again this weekend.

one winter here, i believe it was 2009-2010, there was a snowstorm every weekend it seemed starting in December and it all started piling up
total accumulation was at least 3 feet of snow... Christmas services were basically canceled because of bad blizzard on Christmas Eve all the residential streets plowed into the main roads, snow up to the hood of my truck
but!! around here that white stuff usually melts away when temps fluctuate above freezing to 50 and even 60 and then goes back to freezing
well that year it BARELY made it above freezing for months on end, meaning NO melt
all that snow compacted into glacier like ice that the wildlife and small dogs could walk on top of the crusted without falling through
it was over 3 months of at least a foot of snowcover after it compacted and not seeing ANY grassy in 3 months... all the bushes and small tree bark were missing a foot above the ground because that's all the rabbits had to eat all winter
and now this area is looking at a 3rd straight winter of severe drought conditions!
