November was an overall dry month but seemed wet at times. There was measurable precipitation on 13 of the first 17 days but only in small amounts. Less days of moisture the second half of November. The monthly total is 2.36 inches compared to the normal of 3.53″. More than an inch below the average. Year to date with just one month to go my total is 43.42″, just a few hundreds above the NOAA normal of 43.24″.
Aurora Borealis or Northern Lights were out bright last night. Photo from the new bridge over the river on a cold windy night with clouds blowing thru. Flare on the lens from the strong town lights .
Dryness has abated somewhat with 2 larger storms in the past 10 days. Precipitation for the month measured 3.01″ compared to the normal of 3.53″. The second storm included snow for many including here with 4.3″ and more at higher elevations. My November snow average going back to 1993-94 is 2.8″. There have been 5 years with 10 or more inches in November over that time period.
For the calendar year my total stands at 41.68 inches compared to the norm of 43.24″. One month to go. All numbers are from my location in the SE corner of Brattleboro.
