Finally Rain

It is usually hot and dry in the summer here. By the time school starts I'm wondering if I couldn't find a place with better weather. Before we chose this place, I checked out a precipitation map. It said this area gets between 48 and 52 inches per year. I wish I'd checked it out by the month. The map I looked at didn't indicate that most of the rain would happen all at once! But it is finally raining today.
