At my CoCoRaHS station (OR-DG-22) I recorded 4.58 inches of rain for May, normal is 2.58 inches. Last May was 1.31 inches. For this water year from 10/1/21 to 5/31/22 there is 35.33 inches recorded, normal for entire water year ending 9/30/22 is 42 inches. Can we get 6.67 inches in the next four months?
