Dear WeatherCat drought watchers,

For the northern hemisphere, we are moving into the autumn-winter wet season.  I decided to be a bit more systematic about reporting the rainfall at my weather station.  Here is the first report:



Comparison of observed rainfall at Canebas Weather station with seasonal averages for Orinda as reported by: idcide.com.    Two unusual storms in September resulted in receiving our normal monthly rainfall.  However, some rain is expected in July and August so for the 2014-2015 wet season we are already behind by our cumulative normal rainfall by over 25%. 

I will archive the images so that they can be compared as the months evolve and I'll try to post a new entry here around the first of each new month.

I certainly encourage anyone else to start up threads like this recording the climatic conditions around their station.  I would be interesting if we could follow each others weather on a month by month basis.

Cheers, Edouard  [cheers1]

Oh da' shame!!   How can I face my friends when I used Microshaft (un)Excel!!    It is part of Office 2011.

As much as I hate Excel it does have some very nice graphing options.  It is just extremely hard to use!  [banghead]

Ha ha! I too am an Office for Mac junkie. I have tried twice to use Numbers and it's just not as powerful. I have converted to Pages for simple stuff, but complicated reports with footnotes are way simpler in Word.

I tried to re-create your graph with my data but can't quite figure out how you did it. Would you mind emailing (or PMing) me a copy of your spreadsheet? I like the layout.
