The station, and what usual means
The numbers come from NOAA’s daily record for the station at Wheeling Ohio County Airport (station ID 14894), 8 miles from the middle of Brooke County. It reported 284 of the 286 days from Jan 1 to Oct 13; the 2 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.
Usual means NOAA’s 1991 to 2020 daily normals for this station, added up over the same 284 days the station reported, so a missing day counts on neither side.
