Sources and terms

Daily NOAA records through RCC-ACIS, read Nov 15, 2026; updated daily. NOAA’s daily numbers come in a few days late and are sometimes corrected. Volunteer gauge data: CoCoRaHS.

Normal is NOAA’s 1991 to 2020 daily average for this gauge, added up over the same 285 days the gauge reported, so a missing day counts on neither side. The volunteer gauges started in 1998, so none has 30 years of its own; NOAA estimates the rest from long-record stations nearby.

Why this gauge: it is the only one inside Atchison County that reported nearly every day in 2026. Your own rain gauge can read differently a few miles away.
