Monthly Annual Rain Fall

Data Analysis 1

This Table is similar to the Table I created several years ago showing the total monthly rainfall over the course of years. You can easly check out the amount of rain recorder each moth over the course of 18 years.  On my table you can see at the end of the lineup of months the average rain over the years.

Monthly Rainfall Heatmap

Heatmap Station Data 

This table is a Heatmap of the monthly rain falls.  As the blue color deepens the amount of rain is greater.  You can see in which year the rain was heaviest for that month.  I think there may be an error for the month of May in the year 2017 as it shows 32.0 inches whereas my Table shows 42 inches. 

Rainfall vs. Average Wind Speed

Rain and Wind 

This graph clearly indicates that the most rainfall occurs during the months with less wind.  The wet season is associated with lower winds and the dry season is associated with higher winds.

Average Monthly Tempertures Over Time

Temps Averages 

This graph of temperatures (High, Average, Low) reveals some variablity of temperatures but overall our temperatures tend to be rather even.  Maybe there has been a slight rise in temperatures over the years but as I have stated many times you can't determine trends in this data without more history (40+years).  Our average temeratures are in the high 60's to the 70's range.  Our highest temperatures are in the 80's and don't get into the 90's. 

Temperature Trends 

Temperature Trends 

This Temperature Trend graph is another way of lookiing at this.  Again average in the mid 70's and highs in the 80 range with lows in the 60's range.  No particular trend other than consistent is obvious.
