A Big Record
December 28, 1906
The month of December, 1906, has a big record in one respect at least. Last week about a foot and a half of wet, heavy snow fell in Susanville, and little remains upon our streets.
Rain has fallen with more or less regularity for the past week, at times a gentle drizzle, and at times a driving downpour.
The ground being in a receptive condition, most of this generous precipitation amounting to about five and a half inches for the month, as Observer Branham informs us, has been absorbed.
The prophets now, basing their theories upon the earliness and the extended duration of the late storm period, are prophesying a long spell of clear and pleasant weather.
Five and a half inches of rain is a big record for December.
