CLT rain
>> Sunday, June 25, 2006
Heavy rain fell over western Mecklenburg county this afternoon. In fact, the Charlotte airport has gottn over 2.5" of rain this afternoon. That is enough so that now, for the month, the airport is well over 3 inches above average rainfall, and the deficit for the year is now under 6 inches. Impressive, since at the start of the day, the rainfall deficit was over 8.5"....
