Will the rains stop again?

Posted: 09 Jun 2014 05:15 AM

Our weather pattern has been unsettled with numerous rounds of showers and thunderstorms. The featured image shows the Iowa areal average tailing 14 day precipitation totals for each of the past three years and this year to date. This year appears to be mimicking the previous with wet conditions for spring and early summer. The highlighted area shows the rapid drop off that has happened for the past three years in early July. Will this same situation happen again this year?
