Rain was a little less frequent later in the month, but there was ample heat and humidity to make things somewhat unpleasant.

June, 2015



June, 2015 in Reily, Ohio was wet.  The area got just under 10 inches of rain which is well more than twice what should be expected for June in Southwest Ohio.  There were, of course, some decent days, but most of the month had daily threats of rain.  It was also quite hot and humid.  The excessive rain was caused by multiple fronts that stalled out near the area.  Areas to the north (Northern Ohio/Indiana) and west (Oklahoma, Texas) got even more precipitation, in some cases causing significant flooding.
