Dry first week of July

Posted: 08 Jul 2013 05:21 AM

After having plenty of rain during the spring season and June, rain has been difficult to come by for the first seven days of July. The statewide total so far is second driest behind 1940 according to IEM calculations. Some heavy rainfall has fallen in extreme northeastern Iowa this morning and more chances of rain are in the forecast for this week. The black line on the chart shows the normal accumulation of nearly an inch and getting about an inch of rain per week is about normal for most of the summer.
