Rainfall was no record, but sure seemed like it i Believe it or not, last week's rains didn't make a record. : We had 2.59 inches for the week, but it sure seemed like more. Kenneth Kitzmiller reports that for the month of June we've seen 3.93 inches of the wet stuff. Last June, for the entire month there was only 2.91 inches. ! But get your ducks in a row. If the last two years are any indica- tion, we may be in for more rain in July. In 1991 July saw 4.15 inches and in 1990 the same month had 6.48 inches. Just so it doesn't come allatonce.... ‘Tom Howard of Public Works said there were no flooding prob- lems in Kings Mountain. "We've been working drainage like crazy for a long time," he said. "We were in pretty good shape these past rains.” But, he warned, that doesn't mean that in the future if the rains are worse than last week's we won't be up to our knees in some places.
