Wow, lots of rain around Douglas! [View all]

DOUGLAS AIRPORT HAS RECEIVED 7.85
INCHES OF RAIN SO FAR THIS MONTH. THIS MAKES JULY THE WETTEST MONTH
ON RECORD...DATING BACK TO 1948. THE PREVIOUS WETTEST MONTH WAS
AUGUST 1959. WE ARE ONLY TWO WEEKS INTO JULY SO HITTING 8 INCHES
THIS MONTH IS WELL WITHIN THE REALM OF POSSIBILITY.


from NWS current forcast discussion, http://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=NWS&issuedby=TWC&product=AFD&format=CI&version=1&glossary=1

I haven't done my totals yet, but it sure isn't almost 8 inches

we did have 1.65 at the house in the last 24 hours, but just 2 1/2 miles to the SW we only had 32/100ths.
