Rainfall data for these sites are updated hourly. [21-Nov-2024] The Cottrell School (#782) rain gage is temporarily down with a data-telemetry problem. [23-Nov-2024] The Thirteenth Ave (#987) rain gage was added to the network. Data since July will be added later. Disclaimer: Rainfall data on this page have not received final approval and as such are provisional and subject to final revision. The data are released on the condition that neither the USGS, the United States Government, nor the City of Portland may be held liable for any damages resulting from their use. More information about the quality of precipitation data is available. A water year is defined as the 12-month period beginning October 1 of any year and continuing through September 30 of the following year. The water year is designated by the calendar year in which it ends and which includes 9 of the 12 months. Thus, the water year ending September 30, 2018 is called the 2018 water year.
