Precipitation Totals 9/18

Tuesday proved to be a rain maker, just not for our area. Locations in southern and eastern Pennsylvania received over 2 and 3 inches. However here in Crawford County, we only saw a fraction of this with most locations receiving under an inch of rain. All the models had at least an inch for our area with one model saying above 2 inches. The problem with relying on the models to forecast precipitation is that they usually over exaggerate how much will fall which is what happened. Of course I bit into the models and believed that we would at least clip the inch mark but the heaviest bands were to our east. Anyways, we did receive a decent amount which will help with our "abnormally dry" situation we are still in. Here are some precipitation totals for Tuesday September 18.
