Heard this statistic today and thought I'd pass it along.

Total rainfall for the year is 17" above normal.
Yep, you read that right.

17 inches.

I remember riding 3-4 times a week early in the spring so it must have all been from May until now.

I think 2019 was well above average for total rainfall also.

Sucks

The gauge at Fisher shows 62.4 inches YTD. A normal year there is about 45 inches. 
Hopefully 2021 will not be as generous.

Well we can always turn the clock back to 2003-2005 when we were that amount and more BELOW for 3 straight years and in a drought.  I lost a 60 year old 100 foot oak tree from it. Cry
