Rainfall

Ok, found some rainfall data. From the Charlottesville airport:

PRECIPITATION (IN)
YESTERDAY 0.03
MONTH TO DATE 0.04
SINCE MAR 1 5.37
SINCE JAN 1 7.44
So apparently not as much rain yesterday as I might have hoped. Maybe it rained after midnight, though, and that doesn't show up here?

  1. Why don't you put a rain gage by your garden? I would not trust the airport measurements as being accurate for your garden. Have you seen a radar map before? There can be a bit of a difference in precip amounts over a few miles.

  2. I agree with Big J. Put a rain gauge on your deck. May also want to add some topsoil and humus to help the red clay soil.
    Have fun!!
