Weekend rain in Menlo Park pushes annual rainfall past last year’s total

Monday afternoon update from Bill: Another .15″ to report. That is .6″ for the day. And 21″ season-to-date. Rain years 05′ and 06′ are now in sight. Both were a few tenths above 24″. Did I ever tell you I call myself, ‘Mr rainfall in Menlo Park’…. Just fun for this fellow!”

Emails InMenlo weather watcher Bill Russ: “While I was sleeping, .45″ of rain found its way into my gauges. My season-to-date total is now 20.85″ with the prospect of more rain to come through out this week. This exceeds all of last year’s total, which was 20.35”.
