We can’t say exactly how much rain fell on Capitol Hill last month but we would speculate that it’s a pretty good bet the neighborhood kept solid pace with the record setting totals recorded at Sea-Tac.

Our October 2016 tallied 10.05 inches of rain for the month. The old record was 8.96 inches set in 2003. October featured a sopping 25 days of recorded rain, also reportedly a record.

If you’re wondering if you are living through the End Times, it’s hard to say. But “climate models driven with increased greenhouse gases show a dramatically increased amount of early fall precipitation, particularly during October.”

Happy November.
