The station, and what usual means
The numbers come from NOAA’s daily record for the station in Clear Lake (station ID USS0021D12S), 26 miles from the middle of Wasco County. It reported every one of the 281 days from Jan 1 to Oct 8. 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 281 days the station reported, so a missing day counts on neither side.
Why this station: it is the only one inside Wasco County that reported at least 90% of the days in 2026. Your own rain gauge can read differently a few miles away.
