please do not followup with more BS about what is going on, but if you have comments about the article and information and if it is useful to you i would be glad to see those.

I haven't waded through yet, but wanted to point out that that highlighted link has changed (at least for me) from "Climate Information" to "Local Climate."
Thanks, by the way. I've been wanting to find a source for YTD rainfall. I'm guessing degree-days will be in there somewhere as well.
ah, thank you for the correction. someone else will likely point that out on the site before i can get back to it.
y.w. i was looking for degree days too, but my time is up for the moment on looking further.
have to get under the house to fix the dryer vent and change the air filter for the furnace and then get back to the gardens for weeding if the rains will hold off.
