AUSTIN (KXAN) -- May was Austin's first wetter than normal month since July 2024. As we head through the beginning of our third wettest month of the year, June, will our fortunes continue?
Soggy May
May was far from typical -- it was wet, then record hot, but ended wet enough to make up for that dry spell in the middle.
We ended up with a rainfall surplus to break a nine-month dry spell.
