Summer rainfall 2008

Posted: 21 Aug 2008 06:31 AM

The featured chart is accumulated rainfall totals for the summer months from Ames. The accumulated difference between actual (blue line) and climatology (red line) has been running well above zero with some times double what we would have expected at the time. August has been a different story than the previous 3 months with very little rain reported. Some rain is in the forecast, but nothing excessive.
