Wimpy rain continues in Menlo Park

Except for two days of downpour mid-month, the rain that’s fallen on Menlo Park hasn’t amounted to much in March.

InMenlo weather watcher Dennis Nugent’s digital gauge recorded 0.03″ as of 3:30 pm today.

That brings the season-to-date to 17.79″, creeping ever so slowly to the “magic” 20.00″ that ends the weather year on September 30 (and began on October 1, 2025).
