Does LESS rain in the fall mean MORE rain overall? There is NO correlation at all.

Does LESS rain in the fall mean MORE rain overall? There is NO correlation at all.

I think many locals are wondering whether less rain in the fall means more rain overall. It's a nice thought in this dry autumn of a drought year.

I collected data about San Marcos Pass rainfall from the Santa Barbara County Hydrology website. I got the data into Excel, and did quick and dirty spreadsheet. Then I collected the data for Sep-Nov rainfall vs. total rainfall. I'm sorry to say that there is no correlation at all. The graph looks like a shotgun blast. Some years with no early rain have been wet, and some have been dry. I added a trendline, but it doesn't mean anything.

This weather year will be what it is, wet or dry. Be that as it may, there's always something interesting happening in the woods. I just hope it's mushrooms and wildflowers and not oak trees dying. (San Marcos Pass, 20 November 2013)
