Up the end of May the total rainfall was 3mm greater than that recorded over
the same period in 2003 which was an exceptionally dry year (446mm). The way
things are heading this June, 2005 could prove to be less wet than 2003 at
the end of the month.

One of the notable features of 2003 was the wet November (104mm) which is
over 23% of the annual rainfall for the year.

However, with temperatures as they are, evaporation will also be a lot less.
