    NYC picked up 1.4" of rain early this morning making it the eight 1" event so far this year...

    rain events are like snow events...you can get 5" on a Sunday morning and another 5" Monday afternoon and it will show 5" for both days...but it really was two 5" events... 10" over two days...I looked at the hourly rainfall which was very tedious...if there was a dry period between I did not add them together unless it came in one callander day...I did not see hourly totals for some years so I had to use daily totals...

    getting clobbered right now...
  5. uncle W
    yesterday and today totaled 4.06"...4.1" rounded...there was only a few hours with no rain reported so both days can be as one...

    back in the day there was a wine called ripple...the ripple effect back then was a head ache the next morning...
