Last week's totals 1843, 2039, 2016, 2006, 1971, 1937, 1891. I drawn no conclusions from this, but my impression is that in Fairfield and Jefferson County as a whole, rainfall in May and June has been about average. I have no actual stats on this, so it's possible I could be proved wrong. But often if you watch the radar, you see a line of storms coming in and apparently heading this way, then they tack to the north and miss us in Fairfield. Iowa City has had had significantly more rainfall than we've had.
