<title>Now that’s rain (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Imagine this…</p>
<p>About 50 km from where I live is a place named Hucuktlis Lake.</p>
<p>Hucuktlis Lake averages 6,903 mm (271.8 in) of precipitation, and in 1997 9,307 mm (366.4 in) fell.  </p>
<p>Over 30 feet of rain in a year. </p>
<p>When people visit with me and complain about the weather I tell them, “If you want to visit a rainforest, expect some rain.” When people visit Troncones and complain that it’s hot I say something similar.</p>

</blockquote><p>Hard to imagine that kind of rain. Using the old Farmers' Almanac figure of 1 inch of rain = 10 inches of snow, that's a 240 inch snowfall...20 FEET!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Since I periodically post information on how to access the weather station data, I don't post quantities.</p>
<p>Yes, it was 19 inches, bringing us up to 29 inches for the season.  We still need more.</p>
<p>John was kind of the opposite of Rick.  Rick was windy and not horribly wet, a gust to 48 MPH and 8 inches of rain.  John had a maximum gust here of 24 MPH, but 19 inches of rain.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>There was no post. I read it directly from his weather page. It was 19 inches. It has now disappeared from the page because the storm is over, I presume.</p>
</blockquote><p>There had to have been a post, or I wouldn't have seen it. I was just mystified by the figure of 19 inches. I know Cinco de Mayo floods every time a dark cloud passes by....I can't imagine what 19 inches of rain would look like.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Did you have a post in the last few days indicating your gauge showed 19 inches of rain recently? I can't find it....and I wondered if you'd missed a decimal point.....like maybe 1.9 inches?</p>
