Gammyof2 : At this point in the year (November 22), our average year to date rainfall total is typically right at 50" inches. (Our yearly avg. is 52"). So far, we have received right at 33" inches at IAH, giving us a 17" inch deficit for the year. This summer was brutal with the lack of rain but the drought started at the beginning of the year. We had a deficit # every single month going into the summer and every month since so it all adds up.
@StormChaser : Wow. I wonder if Winter will bring us up to speed?
