THE WEATHER VARIED WIDELY WITH MORE THAN HALF OF THE MONTH SEEING
DRY WEATHER, WHILE A FEW DAYS SAW SIGNIFICANT RAIN AND WIND. ENOUGH
RAIN FELL TO END UP NEARLY 2 INCHES ABOVE NORMAL. A SIGNIFICANT
PORTION OF THIS FELL ON THE 23RD AND 24 WHEN 3.13 INCHES WAS
RECEIVED IN 24 HOURS. THIS IS THE MOST RAIN IN 24 HOURS SINCE THE
LATE 90S. THIS WEATHER SYSTEM ALSO BROUGHT THE STRONGEST WIND GUST
SINCE DECEMBER OF 2024 WITH A GUST OF 46 MPH. THE OTHER SIGNIFICANT
WEATHER WAS A VERY COLD SYSTEM ON THE 16TH AND 17TH THAT BROUGHT
RAIN AND NUMEROUS SMALL HAIL SHOWERS. A FEW SNOW FLAKES WERE
REPORTED IN EUREKA, BUT NOT ON WOODLEY ISLAND. THE HIGH TEMPERATURE
ON THE 17TH ONLY REACHED 46 DEGREES. INBETWEEN THESE DRAMATIC
WEATHER SYSTEMS THE WEATHER WAS TRANQUIL AND THERE WERE SOME WARM
DAYS.
