The Rain Is Finally Over

After a full week of rain, many of us are feeling a bit water-logged. So how much rain did we get?

Environment Canada meteorologist Claude Cote tells Tide News since last Thursday, (May 23rd, 2013)  Charlotte County reported anywhere from 85-105 mms of rain. Cote says, "That brings the total monthly rainfall to about 147 mms, typically in Charlotte County we have 118 mms, so already we are above normal."
He tells us, over the weekend, on average, communities in New Brunswick received 70 mms of rain.

Cote says St. Stephen recieved 91 mms of rain, Grand Manan reported 102, and the Bayside and St. Andrews areas with 103 mms of rain.



He adds we will soon dry out with June, July, and August in Charlotte County having warmer than normal temperatures.
Sunshine is forecast for tomorrow.
