It's too bad that NOAA doesn't have AARs discussing what went wrong with the predicted weather. I think such reviews would be interesting and reassuring to the public, particularly when a serious storm warning is given and a storm doesn't occur. I notice that when we have storms with extremely fine snow, we have no or little accumulation. This has been the case all month.

5/17/2015 7:00 AM 0.09 M M M M Astonishing amounts of rain for May. Reviewing my records, we usually only have this amount of rain for the year by mid-July. The rain has its price, however, as the rodent and lagomorph populations are exploding with consequent public health risks.

6/29/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Something seems not quite right recently with the forecasting models for this part of the Rio Grande Valley where we have been getting 50-60% chances of precipitation for days, but not even a trace of rain. From looking at the sky here, and seeing the direction of the clouds, during those days, I would not have put the chances of rain as high as the forecasters. It is perplexing.

7/30/2015 7:00 AM 0.84 M M M M We had one full rain gauge! 60% (lowered from 70%) produced a significant rainfall starting at 7:39 PM. We are now over 9 inches for the year, still short of where we were at this point in 2010, but a great deal of moisture nonetheless. Everything looks tall and lush and thick and neon green! We have 30+ hummingbirds emptying 3 feeders daily.
7/31/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M The predicted 70% chance of precipitation yielded not a single drop. Since we had over an inch in the last 2 days with 20% and then 60%, no one is complaining about the lack of rain. With no rain, I began tackling the Brobdingagian weeds all the rain has produced. The soil is quite wet many inches down, a rarity in summer here.
