Just How Much Rain Have We Seen?

It's been an awfully rainy month of October so far, and we've been tallying up some of the numbers we could find. Pretty impressive stuff for a lot of us. This animation below is for Sioux Falls & vicinity, but shows just how much rainfall we've actually picked up through today:

Elsewhere we've also seen some impressive rainfall totals for the month so far, here are a few:

• Pierre 3.52" so far this month - 2.28" Above Average
• Aberdeen 3.54" so far this month - 2.31" Above Average
• Huron 2.94" so far this month - 1.70" Above Average
• Mitchell 1.62" so far this month

So you can see a trend, most likely. It's been wet out there! We're looking for a dry start to Saturday, but then more showers to close out the weekend.

Have a good weekend!
