Depicted above is the reported 24-hour rainfall totals as of 7 AM MDT this morning and the radar estimated rainfall totals. Notice how spotty in nature the heavier rainfall totals are...very typical for summertime thunderstorms in New Mexico.

June Rainfall Totals.
(As Of 6 AM MDT This Morning).
Thunderstorms dotted the some of the landscape of New Mexico yesterday into the overnight hours. We had thunder here in Carlsbad off and on from around 11:30 PM until 4:30 AM this morning. I measured .16" in my rain gauge which brings my June total to .26", and my year-to-date total to 2.15". We certainly could use much more of the wet stuff.
This now makes 5 days this year that the sun has gone blank.
