This is not good news for an already waterlogged region of the country. Would you mind sharing some of that with the West? ;)

So far, thru August, Richmond has received 43.03 inches of rain, which is WELL above average (30.15")and 0.13" from the yearly average! All I can say is WOW.. especially after the drought last year in which we had only 21.07" thru August.

WOW, we have been way over this year as well.. Not sure about the year to date total though.. Know were a good bit over it though.. We more then doubled our August rainfall and we havent had a drop for about a week and a half.. So needless to say the first two weeks were WET.. Ended up with just about 11 inches for the month..
