If you remember from previous entries, the month of June this year was wet. Very wet. We had two weeks of non-stop rain, rivers overflowing, all kinds of nasties. Well, it wasn't really nasty, more like inconvenient.

This week we received the Waterways news letter, a monthly little piece of paper distributed by the city to keep us up to date on what's going on with the city's water. In it is a section about the floods of June, "by the number" as they say.

Average rainfall for June (years 1971-2000): 79.8 mm
Average rainfall for June 2005: 376.5 mm

Wow. People told me the constant rain was not typical of the region. I really believe them now.
