Another .05 of an inch of rain fell on Sioux Falls today, the 13th of May and that brings our total for the month to 1.81 inches. That's a little more than a half-inch above normal.

There's only been one streak of three days without rain so far this month and that was the third through the fifth. So I'm sure there are lots of folks out there, especially construction workers and farmers, who'd like to have several days in a row without any sort of precipitation.

There is some good news in that regard. Even though there is a chance for some light rain late Wednesday night and Thursday, it looks like Friday will be the beginning of at least five days straight without rain. And the latest 6 to 10 day outlook is indicating below normal precipitation.
