The rainfall was above normal for the year for the 3rd straight year although it was dry
early in the year and abnormally dry in Sept towards the end of the rainy season but over-abundant
in Dec. which is a normally dry month. Hurricane Season wasn't anything like the previous year.
Rain was received from Dennis, Katrina, Rita, Opehlia & Wilma. Tropical Storm Tammy affected the
weather directly in Early Oct. although not much was received because all the rain/wind where well
removed to the N & E of the center when Tammy made landfall at Mayport. The wind readings greatly
improved as 30+ mph gusts where recorded 2/3 of the year with March recording 4 days (30,37,33,33).
The highest gust was 40 mph in a Severe T-storm on 6/21 with 10 mins of 0.75-1" hail.
