WEATHERWATCH - July 3, 2008 PDF Print E-mail

As the weatherwatch article was being written, tremendous amounts of rain fell from the sky in the Toledo area. Rainfall totals on Wednesday evening through Thursday morning ranged from 3" - 6", with less rain falling the further south and east you went. The rain garden at the Extension office had a special visitor this morning - a duck. Precipitation totals for the month of June were above normal in each of the five weather stations listed below, with the Columbus area nearly doubling the normal amount of rainfall for the month. Several BYGLers mentioned emptying inches of "wet stuff" from their own gauges at home in recent weeks.

The following weather information summarizes data collected at various OARDC Weather Stations spanning the dates: June 1, 2008 - June 30, 2008 with the exception of the soil temperatures which are readings from Wednesday, July 2 at 12:30 p.m.
