Monthly Summary: August 2015

 

An average August.

The weather station had some interruptions early in the month.

The rain data for August 6 are not measured by the UMM station, but are a best-guess from various sources across the area. The convective storm had a very uneven coverage of the area , and total rain values varied widely.

I used 2.6 inches, but the variation was 0.4 to 4.1 inches.
