June’s rainfall went from merely above average to historic for Toledo when 3.33 inches fell on Saturday.

The rain caused widespread flooding also put the month into fourth place for all-time June rainfall, at 7.22 inches.

That’s 3.65 inches above normal for June, according to the National Weather Service in Cleveland. Toledo’s June record is 8.48 inches, which was set in 1981.

The total for the month might have been higher had a thunderstorm that rolled through many parts of Toledo on Tuesday evening not missed Toledo Express Airport, the official reporting station for the city.

July is expected to get off to a dry start in the Toledo area. Forecasters expect sunshine through the Independence Day weekend in northwest Ohio and southeast Michigan. Highs in the 70s to near 80 are forecast for today through Sunday in Toledo.

Tuesday also closed the books on Toledo’s seasonal snowfall total, which is measured for a July 1-June 30 year.

Despite a record-setting 25.3 inches in February, Toledo’s snowfall for the winter of 2014-15 fell short of the Top 10 list.

According to the weather service, 45.7 inches fell at Toledo Express for the whole winter, about seven inches above normal but 3.5 inches below the 49.2-inch snowfall from 1936-37 that now occupies 10th place on the list.

The record was set in 2013-14, when 86.3 inches fell through the winter at Toledo’s main airport.
