Editors note 2: ARGH! I can't do math either, and daily records are probably based on MST rather than MDT. NWS is reporting 1.59" so far, so scratch the 1.70" noted in the post below (we may get there eventually) and use 1.59", putting us at #13. Yes, still very wet! Please forgive me...

If my math is correct, we have now had 1.70" of precipitation (water equivalent) at the Salt Lake City airport from Midnight to Noon.
That would rank as the wettest calendar day ever in March and the 11th wettest calendar day ever in

Looks like top 5 is going to happen...pretty remarkable for this time of year...too bad it isn't translating to totals at Alta with the northerly flow.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I was skeptical at noon, but the band has been remarkably resistant to movement. Very impressive event.
