The Bridgewater and Inglewood district has received 770mm for the year to the end of November when 49.8mm was recorded.
The record rainfall year was 2010 with 867.8mm, eclipsing 722mm in 1992 and 724mm in 1887.
Wedderburn’s November rainfall was 38.2mm, slightly below the 10-year monthly average and just a few millimetres under November last year when a massive rain dump swelled the Nardoo Creek, splitting the town for several hours.
Mincha recorded 55.2mm in November, also the area’s highest monthly total since 2010.
Bureau of Meteorology data shows that Canary Island recorded 53.4mm for the month and Prairie 49.4mm. Pyramid Hill has received 579mm for the year.
