Rainfall Statistics, 2013

[CongletonHeat]

Quite liked the rainfall just lately, it has all seemed to come in one go and then bugger off again, had a couple of really wet days in May then nothing, suits me fine.

That is impressive, what's the wettest year recorded there?

[The PIT]

Finally rained today now up to 1mm for this month.

[Jonan92]

That is impressive, what's the wettest year recorded there?

 

Well, that depends of the are of the Basque Country

 

 

 

The data I gave before is from the station of Arrasate/Mondragon (light blue), that station is the closest to my location. However, it has only been working for 15 years more or less.

 

On the other hand, I have information of Donostia/San Sebastian (top right - dark blue) since 1928 and the wettest years on record are the following:

 

1979 -------------- 2206,3

1930 -------------- 1974,1

1931 -------------- 1909,5

2008 -------------- 1909,5

1960 -------------- 1876

[The PIT]

Up to 5.8mm so far for June. Not bad for an unsettled week eh?

[Bobby]

Had almost nothing until a few days ago, now we have 60mm this month after a lot of rain in the past few days and continuing to rain today.

[J10]

12mm of rain so far this month, 342mm this year so far, which is not that much drier up to this same time last year, but there was over 800mm for the remaining 6 and half months. Please no repeat.

[Terminal Moraine]

15.7 mm here for the first half of June, which is just 38% of the 30 year average. The total for the year so far is 395.2 mm, 86% of the 30 year average.

[The PIT]

Now up to 7mm for the month. Some light rain tonight should boost the total.

[Gray-Wolf]

Very different to the same time last year! We are a few days away from the anniversary of the 'River' flood event ( not the flash floods 4 weeks later) so by this time last year the Moors were overflowing and we still had a 'winter' water table level.

[Bobby]

75mm here which is not far off the average of 90mm. Quite different to last year though when we had 300mm.

[Mapantz]

27.4mm for June so far (24.5mm below my average)  comparing that to 143mm for the same period last year.2013 stands at 472.4mm, compared to 469.4mm for the same period last year.

 

June hasn't been too bad for a change!

[The PIT]

Up to 21.5mm here 29.5% so 14.5mm in the last couple of days. 

[J10]

Up to 21mm this month.

[4wd]

22mm here, average is 84mm so a fair bet we won't reach that in the next week but will be showery tomorrow.

2007 was wetter than last year here at 154mmIt seems quite dry and it's noticeable that if we get 5mm it just soaks in and is dry within 24 hours, whereas last year things got so waterlogged that 5mm was enough to raise the river levels dangerously deep for calves to cross.Year is on 268mm which is about 100mm below average.

[The PIT]

The weekend washout added very little to the total now up 23.1mm. Very little sign of any major rainfall so a dry month is extremely likely.

[Somerset Squall]

Barring any rain tonight (not likely), June's rainfall comes in at a little less than half the average.

 

January: 95.2mm (above average)February: 43.1mm (below average)March: 55.9mm (average)

April: 27.3mm (well below average)

May: 57.4mm (above average)

June: 28.0mm (well below average)2013 so far: 306.9mm (a little below average)
