The Thing With the Weather

 There are so many weather related sayings it's hard to keep track though the "April showers bring May Flowers" has been around since the 16th century and as with most sayings about weather it is less than factual. Depending on location April is rarely the wettest month, on average it is the 5th wettest with the wettest month belonging to June in the US. According to 30 years of data from 8,535 National Climatic Data Centers 2,053 reported June as the wettest month leaving April with only 76 reporting it as wettest. Not only is June the wettest in the contiguous US according to calculations June 7th is the wettest day overall.
