oconeexman Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Almost 8" of rain this month. Pretty sure we will surpass 10 before August is up. That will make 2 months this summer with over 10" of rain with no tropical help. Something is going on for sure..and not a single day in triple digits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yotaman Posted August 13, 2018 Author Share Posted August 13, 2018 Big storms hung out to our west most of the day today and when they finally moved in to our area, they fell apart. .10" was all we could muster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
