Rainfall was plentiful this month as I headed into the dry season.
I received 4.52" or +0.86" above normal. I am still in a drought as
I am still -6.21" in the hole. For the first time in four months, I
didnt break the 80ºF dew point. The pressure dropped to 29.598"/hg
as a strong frontal system moved through for this time of year.
