Rainfall for 1909 at Carrigoran. 



Total, 



207 Rainy days. 



Here we had our averag-e annual rainfall this year — 

 viz., 40 inches (which is the avcrag-e for this part of 

 Co. Clare), though the amount has been distributed in 

 an unusual manner, April and October being- the two 

 wi'ttest months of the year, and about a quarter of an 

 inch more of rain fell in the last half of year than in 

 tlie tirsi six months.
