    Yep, you guys definitely got it worse than we did even. To add insult to injury, it looks like the last day of 2018 is gonna be a rain day here too. Sheesh.

    This after the extended hot, dry stretch we had this summer. We were in a drought until autumn then it went the other way with a vengeance. Extreme weather patterns are the new normal. Global warming rearing it’s ugly head.

    I seen yesterday that TN broke the 1976 record for most annual rainfall. They have been keeping rainfall records for 125 years. I know everywhere is just sloppy wet.

    I think the numbers are the % compared to the average. As in 114 means you were 14% over thru the month of November

    I think we may have broken the record for wettest November in Mass, if not a very close second. I think someone said it rained half of the days in November. Made up for a dry summer though

    Statewide rankings for average precipitation for 2018 through November, as compared to each January-to-November period since records began in 1895. Darker shades of green indicate higher rankings for moisture, with 1 denoting the driest month on record and 124 the wettest. Image credit: NOAA/NCEI, via Wayback Machine.
