It's not just about 2 inches... the local area is currently in a "Moderate DROUGHT status". Check out http://www.ncdrought.org/<br /><br />I have family who are fire fighters and they are worried about fires with all these dry leaves on the ground.

Humans really have only been studying weather for less than 80 years. There is a lot to learn. <br /><br />Thanks for the article Steve. I have been curious about the NAO and what effects Sandy had on that. I guess that if it did, it wasn't enough to open the gates from the north.
