The Great Portland Downpour Drama: Drizzle or Deluge?
Ah, Portland. The city of roses, towering evergreens, and...well, let's be honest, rain. Lots of rain. But just how much rain are we talking about this July? Buckle up, because we're about to dive into the fascinating (or frustrating, depending on your raincoat situation) world of Portland's monthly sprinkle.
How Much Rain In Portland This Month |
Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head (But Not That Much This Month)
So far, July has been a bit of a tease rain-wise. We're currently looking at a measly 4.2 millimeters (that's about 0.17 inches for those of you clinging to the imperial system) as of July 9th. That's a far cry from Portland's usual July average of a cool 114 millimeters (or 4.5 inches).
Is this a sign of a drought-stricken future? Relax, flannel friends. It's still early in the month, and Portland rain can be as unpredictable as a hipster's facial hair choices.
But Wait, There's More!
Here's the thing about Portland rain: it likes to make an entrance. We could still be in for a week-long downpour that'll have you singing "Singing in the Rain" while simultaneously cursing leaky basements.
Reminder: Focus on key sentences in each paragraph.
