First 10 days of the month coming in with a - 3.2° temp departure here.

Dec 2015 was ridiculous

The coming week will continue the cold pattern which set in last Wed...To bad we couldn't cash in with any snow.

Looks cold but dry for upcoming week...Two storm threats for rain in 7 - 10 day range... Doesn't look like any snow but something to track... Getting some of our stations closer to the 70" yearly precip total.

Yeah Nov was below normal also, with only that Thanksgiving snowstorm for the period. Also this day 1998 was 76 degrees here, my highest Dec temp.

Some mention Dec 1989...That month was amazingly cold, dry and relatively snowless...My station had a 24.8° mean temp with only 1.2" of snow and 0.89" of precip.

I see on tropical tidbits 18z is out to 24hrs currently...probably some type of glitch. Most likely similar elsewhere.

I can't believe that in 30 years, I'll be 88, god willing lol.

I had 73.55" in 2011...In one 30 day period from approx 8/5- 9/5 , I measured over 25". Don't think I'll ever see so much rain in that period of time again.

My station had 63.11" in 1983.

1.03" for event and 63.54" for the year. Dreary day with drizzle and fog.

No precip this week? That's gonna feel different, cold though...just right for Christmas decorating.

Joe as far as I know it's bogus...I can remember the explanation of a faulty weld causing leakage into the gage...That total was 17" higher than my station even. Those totals were said to be thrown out but somehow it seems to have been forgot about. If you do a Google search you can find some further info.

0.70" so far for event...Yearly total now at 63.12" passing 1983 for 2nd wettest year since 1981. Wettest of course is 2011 at 73.50".

Yeah Oct 05 here had over 13" of rain alone, that followed Sept which was extremely dry though with just 0.53".
