2026 so far in Alcorn County
- Biggest single day: not known. 2 reports cover more than one day, and the biggest day could be inside one of them.
- Longest dry stretch: 12 days in a row with the gauge at zero, May 8 to May 19.
- 2025 by the same date: 43.16 inches at the same station (it missed 3 days). On the 275 days both years reported, 2026 had 8.46 inches less than 2025.
- On 2 reports the observer read the gauge after more than one day. That rain counts on the day it was read, so it is in the totals but not split by day.
The station, and what usual means
The numbers come from NOAA’s daily record for the station 5 miles west-southwest of Corinth (station ID 221962), 3 miles from the middle of Alcorn County. It reported 278 of the 286 days from Jan 1 to Oct 13; the 8 days with no report count as unknown, not as dry. Rain here means everything the gauge caught: rain, and snow melted down to water. A trace counts as zero. It is read once a day, usually in the morning, and each reading is filed under the day it was read, so an evening storm can show up on the next day.
Usual means NOAA’s 1991 to 2020 daily normals for this station, added up over the same 278 days the station reported, so a missing day counts on neither side.
Why this station: 3 stations inside Alcorn County reported at least 90% of the days in 2026. Mountain snow sites, and stations far above the rest in the county, come last, since their rain is not what the farms below get. Then the pick goes to one with NOAA normals, then the most days reported, then the one nearest the middle of the county. Your own rain gauge can read differently a few miles away.
