Title: My VistaPrint Electronic Business Card
Hi
I wrote a message in August that we were in a drought and were 2.5 inches
short for the summer. I need to correct this - we were 2.5 inches short for
August. At the end of August we were short more that 7 inches. July
had the most rain and was only 0.54 inches short; April and June more
than 2 inches short each; May short about an inch.
The weather forcaster said this was the least amount of rain since
1956. I bet the correction will make more sense. This is the first year
that I have paid much attention to rainfall, except for things like holidays,
painting and travel days. My friends up in the Erie penninsula of
Canada have said they are in a drought also.
Thanks
