The average rainfall amount for NWS Jax for june is 5.37 inches. As of 11:30pm during the late night broadcast, the NWS Jax recorded 17.01 inches for June 2004. This make this the 3rd wettest month ever on record, and the 2nd wettest June ever.
The wettest month on record was June 1932 with 23.32 inches, followed by September 1908 with 21.79 inches.
Now speaking tropically, would there be any coorelation to this?
In 1908 there were 3 threast to the east coast of Florida, but only one made landfall along the North Carolina Coast. The other two affected the Bahama's. In 1932, however, a tropical storm affected NE Fla directly from the Gulf of Mexico. whereas, there were 11 named/numbered storms.
I posted the links below, lets hope we don't see a season like 1932!!!

Houston and JAX could be twins!!! Our numbers are very similar!!
Definitely don't want a repeat of the 1932 season!! If i read it right the second one was a CAT4 that came in right over Houston!!!
