...New Wisconsin 24 Hour Precipitation Record Set...

A new Wisconsin 24-hour precipitation record has been set. A
Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District gauge measured 14.55 
inches from the afternoon of August 9th to the afternoon of August
10th. The previous record was 11.72 inches from near Mellen,
Wisconsin set on June 24th, 1946.

There is an established process to review potential new state 
records. The calibration and siting of the gauge was checked a few
days after the event. The rain gauge data and meteorological 
scenario was reviewed by a committee including staff from the 
National Centers for Environmental Information, Midwestern 
Regional Climate Center, Wisconsin State Climate Office, NWS 
Central Region and NWS Milwaukee/Sullivan.
