November Rainfall
Said Below Normal
November didn’t measure up
to the average for rainfall in
Bryan and College Station and
moderate precipitation is fore
cast for the remainder of the
year, which lists a record-tying
41-day dry spell.
But 1969 promises to be about
25 per cent wetter than normal.
Rain gauges over the Burton
Creek watershed are running
about five to 10 inches more rain
with a month to go than the 39
inches Brazos County normally
gets in 12 months.
Twenty-six gauges in a rain
fall-runoff correlation study by
A&M meteorologists averaged
2.91 inches last month, which usu
ally averages 3.5 inches. The mid
section of the Burton watershed,
from near Country Club Lake
south to Brookside Drive, receiv
ed the heavier amounts.
An observer at Harvey com
munity reported 3.41 inches and
Kurten got 2.54.
November temperatures ranged
from 90 degrees on the 8th to 31
on the 15th, with no records. The
average was almost exactly nor
mal, according to Dr. Robert A.
Clark, deviating from the month
ly mean by only a tenth of a
degree.
U. S. Weather Bureau long-
range forecasts indicate below
normal temperatures and mod
erate rainfall of three to 3.5
inches can be expected during the
Dec. 15 to Jan. 15 period. The
temperature range will be from
40 to 60.
