Request for Question Clarification by sldreamer-ga on 04 May 2003 13:06 PDT

Rainfall data is available for nearby Portland and Salem.  Would you
accept the year-to-date rainfall for either of those cities?

Hello bookfarm!

It was fun finding your answer. I called the Newberg Chamber of
Commerce and was directed to the local newspaper: The Newberg Graphic.
Two people there were very helpul. One was Beth Nistler, she provided
the name of the individual that keeps the rainfall records, and Gary
Allen provided the telephone number. The Newberg Graphic calls Lewis
Schaad (or his brother Clarence) for the annual rainfall statistics
they publish in the newspaper.

Lewis Schaad of "Rex Hill Rainfall" is the person I spoke with.
Contact him at: (503) 538-2006

Here is the information you requested:

     January: 8.99 inches
     Febuary: 3.53 inches
       March: 6.99 inches
       April: 5.67 inches
 May 1 thru 4: .31 inches
