Lots of Goose Eggs

Posted: 17 Jul 2017 05:32 AM

Since the end of May, rainfall has been difficult to come by for Ames. The featured chart displays daily precipitation reports from the Ames Airport since May 28th. Plenty of goose eggs (zeros) appear on the chart with only one significant rain shown of 1.65 inches back on the 14th of June. There are some chances of rain in the forecast this week, but it remains to be seen how much places like Ames will see. Certainly the driest areas of southern Iowa do not look to fare well this week with the best rain chances confined to northern Iowa.
