hola, buenos días, mi familia y yo tenemos mas de 20 años de tener una propiedad en la FORTALEZA, han sido buenas experienecias agradables vividas en Cerro Azul, ahora voy menos, pero igual le tengo gran afecto a esa region y a mi linda casita, le doy las gracias por mantenernos al dia, con las situacion de las lluvias, es muy triste ver como el cambio climatico, ha hecho mellas en todo el planeta, cerro azzul, no se queda atras, el clima a subido y las lluvias escasean. lo unico que nos queda hacer es cuidar de nuestro entorno, sembrar arboles, reciclar y tener fe que las cosas mejoren o si no que no empeoren. feliz dia y bendiciones.

here in Torreon the 2013 total through June was 36.77 inches. June's total was 12.66. most rain in one day was June 19th with 3.67 inches. Through June of 2012 we'd had 32.08 inches.

Rainfall for end of the year 2013 is 133.37 inches here in El Centinela.
The day to day spreadsheet is available with recordings for the last 3 years.

The month in 2013 with the most rain is September with almost 24". This month also has the maximum one day rain of 5.6" on September 28.
The most rain days in one month are in August and October with 30 each.

Overall for the year it could be said to be "normal" rainfall. In fact, the years 2013 and 2012 totals are within one inch of each other. But, the 2013 dry season is certainly here and it has come early. There are dire predictions of the lack of sufficient water in reservoirs to provide enough power for the county until the next rainy season. The increasing population of the country and the new electrically powered transit system will require more power in the future. Let's hope rolling brownouts are not in our future.
