OKwx2k4 Posted January 1, 2020 Report Share Posted January 1, 2020 Preliminary amounts being .10-.20 below 75" for 1-1-2019 to 12-31-2019 here would likely make it calendar year tied for #2 or the number one wettest year in my county's history. What a way to close out a decade that began with standing heatwaves, persistent 20-plus-month droughts, dried lakes, streams and rivers, along with wildfires in our region. Began with tornadoes here in Eastern Ok and ended on the same note in that regard. What a year 2019 was! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They help me fill the holes in my memory sometimes when I research.My reporting station at Holdrege, which is east of town at the airport, recorded 36.96” which is almost 10 inches above normal. This map actually has the town at 40-45”. My personal gauge at my house was over 42” for the year. Obviously not official, but we know how amounts can vary over a relatively short distance. I concur, I love that NWS Hastings does this. They will at some point put out the yearly snowfall map. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wish sometimes I could move it somewhere where it snows 12"+ as an average and 3" as a 1 in 10 year minimum. Even in the summer here, if you hate heat and humidity, there's forests, caves, creeks, lakes everywhere here. Something within 10 miles anyway. I gripe a good bit but if it wasn't for all of the wacky and dynamic weather in this little area, I wouldn't have the love and awe but great respect of the weather I do. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted April 12, 2020 Report Share Posted April 12, 2020 Are we heading towards another WET year??? If the CFSv2/JMA/Euro seasonal forecasts are right, the central CONUS could be heading towards another active year.

Bryan1117 Posted June 8, 2020 Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 So far at the Omaha Eppley Airfield reporting station, the total precipitation for the year so far is at 7.28 inches... which is 5.09 inches below normal (12.37 is the normal through June 7th). Really hoping we can score the 1 to 3 inches of rain predicted for tomorrow and Wednesday, because it doesn't look like there will be much more rainfall in the region for a while after that (with cooler temperatures thankfully though)... that's a perfect recipe for the beginning of a drought . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowstorm83 Posted January 4, 2021 Report Share Posted January 4, 2021 23.63" in Lincoln for 2020 which makes it the driest year since 2012.
