2026 so far in Kidder County

The station, and what usual means

The numbers come from NOAA’s daily record for the station 38 miles west-southwest of Jamestown (station ID 54937), 20 miles from the middle of Kidder County. It reported every one of the 286 days from Jan 1 to Oct 13. Rain here means everything the gauge caught: rain, and snow melted down to water. A trace counts as zero.

Usual means NOAA’s 1991 to 2020 daily normals for this station, added up over the same 286 days the station reported, so a missing day counts on neither side.

Why this station: it is the only one inside Kidder County that reported at least 90% of the days in 2026. Your own rain gauge can read differently a few miles away.
