Extremes

Interesting map from NOAA/HPC showing precipitation differences from the long term mean for 2011 (okay so 2011 isn't over yet but I don't think we're going to see this map change much).

I spent Jan - July 2011 in College Station, Texas where it was so incredibly dry this year (and hot too) - over 20 inches LESS rain than average.

In July I moved to Albany, New York where there has been over 20 inches MORE rain than average.

Couldn't have lived in two more different places!!!
