9.46" of rain in April here . . .
« on: April 30, 2011, 09:15:42 AM »
I just read in the newspaper that here in southcentral PA we had 9.46" of rain in April - new record.  Normal April rainfall is 3".

I live a mile from the Susquehanna River - depth at Harrisburg is 3', flood level is 17.0'.  It flooded 2x in April.  Usually only floods once every several years.

Crazy . . .  &-) :doh:

We have had 1/2 inch so far this year and was dry last fall also.  I will no longer complain...things could be much worse (like Alabama etc)

We got you beat Reedman..........we had 12 inches which was a new record for us also.  It seems like it has rained pretty well every day this month.......but we lucked out today with our son's outside wedding.  NO RAIN  @O@
