It has been a rainy summer, but I didn’t realize just how rainy until I looked at the National Weather Service site this morning. In a 33-day period from June 21 to July 24, our little corner of Ohio got some 12 inches of rain. That’s about 250% of normal.
The thing is, it often comes down in such powerful downbursts that the figures can add up quickly, even if it doesn’t rain for a long period. Mrs. SR013 reports rain so hard the other day that it nearly obscured the forest behind our house, which is only about 35 feet away.
