It was another rainy week in the Raccoon River Valley, as we reach the end of a rainy month.

According to the National Weather Service, all three of our local weather reporting areas have received above normal rainfall this month.  Jefferson registered another 2.3 inches of precipitation this week alone, Perry saw another 1.8 inches and Guthrie Center saw 1.7.

That brings monthly rainfall totals to between 5.6 and 6.3 inches locally, compared to the normal average of 4.5 to 5 inches.

There’s more rain possible yet this weekend.
