April Rainfall Above Average

We had 20 days of rain this past April, receiving 21.1 inches with a daily maximum of 3.8 inches.

 

 

This felt like a lot of rain, especially after the very dry first three months of the year. However, the record for April, set in La Niña year 2010, is 28.2 inches, so although we’re above average, we’re also well below the record, thank goodness.

The rest of the data are shown in our Summary Table. Temperatures rose a little this month, and wind dropped significantly, as it always does in April.
